Oh, this is really good! And it’s perfect in my whales cup! Whaaaaaales!

It’s all melon! Honeydew melon! And I get something that makes me think of cucumber in it. It’s quite light and refreshing, even though I steeped it for 7 minutes – I may have got distracted taking pictures of my pretty whales. :D I took the leaves and popped it in the fridge with my other nordic mug so I can compare the cold-steeped version later!
I really like this though. It’s light on tea, and heavier on fruit so it might be expensive if you want a lot of black leaf in it, but I don’t mind that either. This way I can share with the toddler and not worry about it. I do get a spearminty after-taste too, although I don’t know if there is mint in it or not. Maybe in the added flavours?
I’d want to rate this 90 and go out and buy a tin, but I know that’s just new-tea-fever! I’ve got a 25g pouch so I’ll rate it after I try it again.

I wouldn’t have thought that cucumber and melon belong in black tea, but I’m seeing this get a lot of love. My interest is piqued!
This might be enough to make me reconsider cucumber tea. Heh.

OH, ETA: This is REALLY good iced. I cold-steeped my used leaves for 6 hours and it was delicious.
