Very pleasant aroma and flavour.
I was concerned that I might not like this when I realized hibiscus was the #2 listed ingredient, but I needn’t have worried. This tastes fresh and fruity and smells amazing. Even my husband, who doesn’t drink tea, likes the aroma!
Flavors: Fruity
(DavidsTea 56)
Iced tea with this. It’s nice enough – fruity and tart, but sweet from the blackberry leaf. The hibiscus is not overpowering. I don’t know that either pomegranate or echinacea are particularly noticeable. I would prefer it without the blackberry leaf sweetness but it doesn’t seem out of place here. Note: it’s best if you don’t let it steep forever in the fridge. It tasted better the first night.
I believe I had this hot too, the first time, and it was unremarkable. Better iced.
Probably won’t pick this up again unless it goes on clearance, as there are others we prefer, but it’s a nice option while it lasts! (So, for one more jug.)
Cold Brew!
My first day back at the office was yesterday, and I managed to remember to bring home a small bag of this to refresh my memory with among all the chaos of getting back into things after our holiday break.
I feel like my description last time, with what little memory of the blend I had, actually ended up being pretty accurate – it’s a sweet, juicy and fruity pomegranate forward blend for sure with more of a subtle herbaceous undertone and just a tinnyyyy hint of rose. There’s a little sharpness/pop of acidity at the top of the sip and the finish lingers sweet and more generically fruity well after finishing the sip. I like this more than I like Pomegrateful, and actually something about it is more reminding me of the long since retired blend Green Seduction. I think it’s the fact I can actually taste a bit of the more fibrous pomegranate seeds that are used in the blend – but I actually like that quality a lot because it makes the pomegranate seem so much more natural and realistic to me.
A super tasty “wellness blend” that works chilled with the right contrast of sweet and tart bright fruit notes and those more natural elements that balance them out.
Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.
