Cup Of Tree sent some of this my way! Thanks a bunch :)
There are a lot of ingredients in this tea! I’m thinking because of the amount of ingredients and the intensity of those ingredients that is why I am not tasting the actual white tea base. I AM, however, tasting the lavender. It’s very floral and slightly creamy. I can also taste other floral notes in addition to the Lav. The peach is subtle but I do like it. I’m picking up some lemongrass/verbena type flavors, too, which are subtle, as well.

In a blind taste test I would assume this is an herbal tea and not a flavored white. Regardless it’s an interesting offering. It’s an ok-offering from Teavana. I haven’t tried it up to this point and and SO VERY HAPPY I was able to thanks to Cup of Tree! Thanks again!

I’m glad you were able to get something out of it! :)

And yeah, about not being able to taste the white tea in this, teavana seems to love overpowering any actual tea flavor with anything else they can find to put on top of it lol

I’ve had a couple lavender whites and none of them had any tea taste. I guess it’s like looking for an ant behind an elephant.

They actually changed the flavor of this tea. The original ingredients were: White tea, lavender blossoms, candied violets and flavoring. Kind of strange! But I find Teavana’s white tea blends to have almost no white tea flavor in them.
