This is the first tea from the New and Improved 52Teas and I’m a big fan of melon flavours so of course i had to try this one while i wait for my teas from the Kickstarter. I have to admit there’s something about the scent that’s a bit weird and off-putting but thankfully that doesn’t translate to the flavour. I can taste both fresh cucumber notes and the sweeter canteloupe notes without either of them coming across as overpowering or artificial. I did think that the oolong base could maybe be a bit sweeter, but then I’ve just eaten a bowl of strawberries from the market (there’s no substitute for local, in-season produce) so that might be skewing my tastebuds a bit. This is a great addition to the 52 Teas collection.
