Vibrant. Subtly tart citrus flavor with juicy notes in every sip. This is Grapefruit Honeybush.

Vivacious & sweet. This blend pairs grapefruit with light floral notes of white hibiscus.

Two years ago derk drank this and saved a tea bag for me. Sadly, it just tastes flat, bitter and tasteless. Flat tasteless hot water after recommended 5 minutes steeping. Nothing of grapefruit or honeybush.

I have been warned, but no tea should be neglected just because one of us doesn’t like it. Sadly, I don’t like it either. Gross.

Update as it’s lukewarm: poured out. Undrinkable.

Grapefruit is an unique flavor, Martin, and I love it! Too bad this tea disappoints. Is there a grapefruit-forward tea or tisane you would recommend?

Martin Bednář

I do have a Grapefruit with Strawberry fruit tisane from Slovakian company. I didn’t found it online with delivery to the US; but it’s very fruity and in my opinion quite genuine. The box contains 16 tea bags. If you’re interested, let me know, I can send you a box or a few tea bags to try.

A couple of Harney blends have grapefruit flavor. I believe Diamond Jubilee is one, but if you search on the site they should pop up.

Yeah, this one was no good. I sent it to for your teabag wrapper collection :P

That counts!

Vaguely honeybush, tart from white hibiscus but it doesn’t mix well with the grapefruit oil and honeybush. Little bit of ginger pokes through. Don’t notice the licorice root at all. I see where the idea was going but there’s nothing juicy about this to make me think grapefruit.

If the best I can say about Grapefruit Honeybush is that the wrapper is a gorgeous color, then frankly, this tea sucks. The remaining bags are being ambient brewed to get rid of it. If that turns out as poorly as the hot cup, at least it’ll serve a purpose as a soil acidifier for my tea plants.

Happens to me very often! Wonderful wrapper, bad tea inside. Shame it is not good.

Pitcher was no good. Martin, I saved a bag for you to add to your collection. Drink it if you want!
