Another from TreeGal a while ago! Thank you! A single sample that looked so fancy – the package makes it seem so classy and dessert like, so the actual tea was confusing. I expected a long leaf black, with creamy peach sugar flavor. Really, it’s like a tart peach, not even a candy peach. The black tea is finely chopped – very small. I only see an occasional marigold flower, but upon steeping, I definitely taste some coconut and yep, there it is in the description too. No idea how old this is now, but I know I have had this sample for at least a year or two. The description mentions mango flavor? Not even peach flavor? I guess it could taste like mango, but then why not call it mango brulee? It isn’t brulee either. Just confusing all around. I didn’t hate it, didn’t love it. I probably would have been better blindtasting it, than relying on the name to guide me. Glad to sample, glad it’s gone. Next morning cold tea tasted like stone fruits on rich black tea — I love next morning cold tea. :D
