I am not going to add this to my cupboard because we are turning it into iced tea so fast that I will be removing it very soon.
I bought this on our beach trip and made a couple of gallons of iced tea. It was peachy and everyone loved it. This tea is no longer available here where I live, so I have to buy it out of town.
Now that we are home, the peach flavor is disappearing from the tea shortly after I make it. I will try using more leaf and not making two gallons at a time and see if that helps.
It is great peach flavor most of the time, so I don’t know what is going on with it. It isn’t just me, a guest said she didn’t taste the peach either. Oh well!

So strange that the flavor disappears after making it.
I am thinking perhaps it was a little underleafed and possibly the flavoring may have more or less evaporated or dissipated? I just had some more and it just tastes like plain iced tea. Smells very peachy in the tin and the single gallon batches I made were good. The two gallon batch is the one that isn’t flavorful.
I had similar trouble with decaf black tea with peach flavour. It just disappeared. Maybe it is trouble of the aroma?
Martin, I think that could be a lot of the problem. So much of our taste depends on aroma, and I think the aroma just up and left!
