I liked this one last year but found little apple flavor. Tried it again this year and felt same. Decided to over leaf it and give it just a bit longer – okay, the overleafing was a decision and the longer steep time was an accident – but the bottom line is that it smells much more like apple and has more real apple flavor rather than a general impression of a light fruity taste being hinted at.
This is a nice base even without flavoring and needs no milk or sugar. I think I am seeing a lot more apple pieces in it this year, too, but that could be my imagination. Good tea. Ashman enjoyed without additions.
