I love this tea company and their many shops in the Tokyo area. Yes, that’s right, I’m in the land of good tea and I haven’t been updating Steepster. This is because I have been drinking a ton of tea, but not so much in my house where I can check labels or really retain the memory of particular notes. I’m working on getting the description for this tea, because it’s no longer on either Lupicia’s English or Japanese websites.

So, this is a very mild fruit blend that tastes mostly of a kind of strawberries and cream. It’s definitely summery and would be superb iced. Anyway, it came in a tin of silk tea bags, somewhat like the tins that Republic of Tea come in, in the US, with higher quality bags.
Really, really good with a snack of dried toasts baked with blueberry jam.

Grad student in sociocultural anthropology. I drink tea while reading for my courses, and it makes the books go down easier. I genuinely like most kinds of tea – although fruit tisanes kind of scare me.
