This tea smells very sweet – hints of apple and cherry…? There is something in this that reminds my nose of a past memory and I can’t put my finger on it. Nevertheless, I’m excited to try this one since it’s such a unique blend.
Sipping… I taste the apple first followed by the smooth black tea. I taste something that reminds me of cinnamon in the background. It almost reminds me of an apple drink I’d have during the fall, but it’s not quite there. I’m not sure if I dislike apple teas or if the ones I’ve had haven’t been that great. Maybe apple is just a difficult flavor to work with in the tea world. The apple flavor is too fake for me, but I do appreciate how unique this blend is.
