Another tea I purchased with the 25% off friends and family…and another Teavana tea that I just do not enjoy. Unfortunately, everything I buy from them seems to be on my “ugh” list.
It smells great. I smelled it in store, as they wafted it across the desk at me with the giant lid of their tea-wall containers. Juicy pear, sweetness, a ting of floral were all things I detected in the scent. (At Teavana they LOVE to WAFT the scent at you with such force its amazing!)
As the tea steeped it smelled great as did the dry leaves.
Sadly, the flavor does not meet the expectations. I taste candied peaches with such a fuzzy mouthfeel that it just makes me purse my lips.
I know other tasters have liked this one. I will be making a swap list for the discussion board later this week and this will be in it…anyone want it?

That’s really too bad. For me, it’s kind of once bitten twice shy with Teavana. The two teas of theirs that I tried were a major disappointment. I hope you will find a loving home for your tea!
I’m right there with you, I always want so badly to like Teavana’s teas, but there’s just not many that I love.
I had to add sweetener to mine, it tastes a lot better. I also did a tasting note mixing this one with the strawberry rose champagne, it makes the strawberry rose slightly ore drinkable.
I don’t love many of their teas, but one I do love is Spiced Mandarin Oolong.
I also loved spice mandarin oolong.
I bought four teas from them and they seem to be lacking. I read online that their teas contain pesticides (even though they say they don’t). Ick!
