This tea has a very mild taste. I was almost surprised by how mild it is. The fruit lends the tea a sweetness (with the pineapple hint most predominant), with the oolong flavour just barely there underneath. Quite honestly, I think this tea masters the art of being a “sweet nothing”.
That being said, I think I’ll make this in a pot next time. I did it in a teabag as a single serving, but I feel almost as if I’m doing the leaves a disservice, since they are whole and could do with the room to expand. The boiling water and ice cube method, however, seems to have done well by this tea, and I will use that again.
EDIT: I just had a second, longer steep with the same teabag I made earlier. YUM.
