This one is from Teekanne Green & White 6×5 pack. I almost never buy tea bags, but this was a nice opportunity to try out few different teas for decent price.
I did google search on opuncia, an it seems to be an edible kind of cactus (genus Opuntia). Aroma rising from cup reminds me of Aloe Vera with slight touch of sweetness to it. But then on second thought, it resembles rum punch as well.
With first sip that Aloe note refreshed my mouth, followed by a mild burst of astringency, but nothing overpowering nor long lasting. I never tasted anything like it. It’s kinda funny, but I enjoy it.
Sipping some more… hmm, I think opuntia flavor could fit well as iced tea. In fact, I might look for some loose leaf blend of this sort.
All in all, I quite enjoyed this one, but I don’t think it could be my everyday cuppa, maybe occasionally or when having cold.
I have a weird soft spot for Teekanne bagged teas. And for opuncia/prickly pear.
The tea surely smells like opuncia, in a fresh, not artificial way. It is fruity and sweety, with some straw green tea character in the background.
And it also tastes decently. there is a balance between the base green tea and opuncia flavouring, the tea is not overdone and it’s really pleasant to drink.
It’s not a double jackpot, but I really like it.
Flavors: Fruity, Prickly Pear, Sweet
