4 Tasting Notes
This is my very favorite tea, unfortunately Teavana discontinued it, I found this out while picking up a refill and saw two tins of it on clearance… I bought them both. When you initially open the tin of this tea, the aromas are of intense notes of plum, apple and almonds. Many may think it too much, but I love it! The tea is sweet, smooth and slightly spicy. I make it using my Teavana Smart Tea Maker. I’m dreading the day I use the last of it.
Flavors: Almond, Apple, Plum, Spices
Preparation
I call this my “sleepy tea”. This is my second box of this tea. I don’t drink it that often, usually only when I need a bit of help to go to sleep or relax. It is very light and smooth. Has a nice aftertaste as well.
Flavors: Smooth
Preparation
I didn’t purchase a whole box of this tea, I picked it out of a variety. Usually ginger has a distinct aroma and taste, but the flavor in this is fairly light. I could smell it more than I can taste it. I couldn’t sense the “sweet note of pear”, but I did taste a very slight “dirt” aftertaste. Not a great tea for me.
Flavors: Dirt, Ginger
Preparation
I didn’t purchase a whole box of this tea, I picked it out of a variety. The tea is tart, almost bitter, and the biggest let down is that it doesn’t taste like blueberry at all.
Flavors: Bitter, Citrusy, Tart
