I haven’t had this tea for a while but Capital Teas does some pretty unique blends. I like the combo of black & green tea with the strawberry and papaya, though it is a little difficult to know exactly how long to steep this for. I am finding it slightly tart and refreshing, might need to try doing this one as an iced tea. I should get some more of their blends someday.

I don’t quite understand why they make green and black tea blends. It’s like knowing in advance your tea can’t be brewed properly, so the only way to go is in between for time and temperature wise but then your green tea is likely to be bitter and the black won’t develop the way it should. Having said that, I’m glad that you seem to have found your sweet spot with it :-)
(the flavouring probably helps to hide whatever flaws there might be )

yeah my strategy with them is to use water that is not quite boiling and it turns out fine, never had a problem with bitterness or flavor.
