This tea was exactly what I have expected from it.
Black tea with fruity taste. The base was mellow and nice, not very distinctive – but I knew it is a black tea base. Of course it is some cheap tea, CTC because of tea bag and so on. But the taste of red fruits (although not only them) was indeed strong and no way artificial. I noticed mostly strawberries and raspberries with tartness of blackberries.
Luckily, again, no hibiscus/rosehips added, so it was all fruity from fruits and not tart form hibiscus.
And considering it must be quite old bag; as it was from “huge bags section”… well, I am impressed!

I had a mixed berry tea today and it resulted in ALL hibiscus. Your tea sounds better.
Yeah, I used to drink “fruit” teas, but I found out they are mostly filled with hibiscus and thus tart and not enjoyable. I was happy to see this wasn’t that case.
