Wow! I have had other teas that claim “black currant” flavor, but nothing I’ve had in the past compares to this blend. You can actually pick out the dried currants and pomegranat seeds. The flavor comes through strongly and presents a fruity, sweetish taste. Took a long steep to get any color into the brew
Flavors: Black Currant, Fruity
I’m not much active on Steepster because I haven’t been trying a lot of different tea lately. I have been buying M.T. Wendell’s Cheericup Ceylon because it is my favorite. That said, gifts of tea drop in every once in awhile and I try to bring my impressions here.
I am unashamedly stealing this rating description from Morgana.
95-100 A once in a lifetime experience; the best there is
90-94 Excellent; first rate; top notch; really terrific; will definitely buy more
80-89 Very good; will likely buy more
70-79 Good; would enjoy again, might buy again
60-69 Okay; wouldn’t pass up if offered, but likely won’t buy again
Below 60 Meh, so-so, iffy, or ick. The lower the number, the closer to ick.
