Thanks to Jenn for a sample of this!
This is a good choice for an afternoon tea. I am getting mostly white tea with lots of chamomile and a tiny bit of mango. I don’t really taste much butter or cream but it is very sweet smelling. This is one I liked better after adding soymilk to it. It’s nice but I don’t think I would buy it for myself.

I felt the same way about this tea. Lots of chamomile, something fruity, no real buttercream flavor. It wasn’t bad but I had built up some crazy, lick the spoon, decadent, buttercream frosting expectations.
Did you try it with milk? If not, do yourself a favour and do it. I know it is odd to drink white tea with milk, but I think the flavour changes a bit with the milk, in a good way. Also, adding sugar brings out the sweetness, even if just a tiny amount.
I added soymilk per the description above but I don’t drink regular milk. Also I don’t add sugar to tea as a general rule.

well that’s due to their marketing spiel, I think!
I’m such a sucka!

Ahh, I missed the soymilk mention. I agree that it isn’t quite like frosting, but it is super yummy!
