While I really love the fruity apricot flavour, I find this tea to become bitter and tannic very quickly. You can only leave it steeping for two minutes at most.It is nice with milk in it, but is sweet enough you don’t need to add sweetener.
Flavors: Apricot, Fruity, Peach, Stonefruit, Tannic
Preparation
This blend is DELICIOUS! It is my favourite rooibos from Granville Island Tea Company. I can taste the orange and spices, even on the second and third cups. The orange flavour is a git different from normal orange. It is less bright and more like a dried citrus zest. I love orange flavour but avoid acidic teas, so this rooibos is perfect. It has the subtle sweetness that rooibos often has, which makes it great for iced tea.
Flavors: Citrus Zest, Orange, Orange Zest, Rooibos, Spices, Sugarcane, Sweet
Preparation
First time I’ve ever thrown away a tea. It was just sitting in my stash smelling artificial and chemically. I was never going to drink it. I can’t seem to trade it away/sell it. Everyone I’ve given samples to has disliked it. I can’t even like it mixed with other teas or cold brewed. It can’t be saved.
So this is a “sipdown” in that I got to delete it from my spreadsheet, but I couldn’t bring myself to drink it down. I used the tin for my new fabulous milky green oolong. #noregretsFlavors: Artificial, Fruity, Plants, Stems, Strawberry
Tastes a little bit artificial. I’m not a huge fan of the strawberry flavour they used, but I do like that it isn’t acidic or tart. That being said, the flavour was apparent (but not strong), even on the second and third steep. This tea tisane was pretty good with milk and with honey added.
Flavors: Artificial, Fruity, Rooibos, Strawberry, Sugar, Sweet
