Arby drank Perfect Peach (duplicate) by Bigelow

2972 tasting notes

This is actually a really nice (but strong) peach tea. It is very sweet (but also a bit tart in a fruit-sort-of-way ) and peachy. this is great with ice but I also like it hot. The reason I would recommend this tea is the intense pastry flavour I get from this, similar to a custard tart or a croissant: creamy and buttery. If you like fruity and dessert-like teas, I would recommend this for you. Note it does get sour if you over steep it. Try 1 minute and taste it before steeping longer.

Smell: fruity, peach, warm, sweet
Steep colour: a moderate amber colour
Tastes: buttery, sweet, slightly sour, pie crust, custard tart, peach, fruity, nectarine
Mouth feel: like eating fruit (the slightly acidity makes your mouth feel odd) but also very buttery in the after taste

Flavors: Butter, Creamy, Custard, Fruity, Nectar, Pastries, Peach, Pleasantly Sour, Stonefruit, Sweet

Preparation

Boiling 1 min, 15 sec 22 OZ / 650 ML

Bio

I am a biochem major hoping for a career in research genetics and evolutionary biology. I love science fiction and spend too much of my time reading comic books. I’m a passionate keeper of spiders, cacti, and exotic plants. I eat a vegan, plant-based diet for moral and environmental reasons (I mention this only because it is relevant to which flavoured teas I drink).

I drink mostly flavoured and low caffeine teas/tisanes, but I will try anything twice. As far as pure teas go, I gravitate towards whites, yellows, and jade oolongs. I’m always open for trades and sample sales/exchanges. Message me any time :)

My cupboard is mostly up to date. For a more comprehensive list, see my stash spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-HjWKR3um-xEnj6HC9vMvKXOAyj_bpW5u_2ixEC20-k/edit?usp=sharing
