17 Tasting Notes
I find the majority of commercial mint teas to be easy too mild to be worth my time. This is the exception. You can SMELL how absolutely minty this tea is when you open it, and the aroma does not disappoint! Hot or iced, add a little honey and you’re golden! Hands down my favorite summer beverage, I could drink it by the gallon!
This tea tastes like a cookie. It really does. It’s the perfect answer to those evening dessert cravings if you’re watching your waistline or your wallet. I only wish that it was a little stronger; I find I usually have to use two bags or add another bag of plain Lipton or something.
There are few commercial bagged teas that I really enjoy, and this is one of them. I got a box on my last trip to Scotland and I will sorely miss it when it’s gone! It’s nice and light, perfect for a mid-day pick-me-up at work, especially with a little agave nectar and milk.
Eh. It’s interesting to see everyone else’s take on this blend. I don’t especially care for fruity teas, and this is no exception. It’s not bad but I only bought this because of the black tea element and those flavors are totally absent in the flavor profile of the resultant beverage. I don’t taste any mint either, just a mild fruitiness. It’s not unpleasant, it’s just not what I was hoping for. I’m going to have to try it iced, because I think that would be very refreshing, but this isn’t at all what I expected.
