This blend is fresh and floral with bold cherry notes! It reminds of the cherry blossoms in Japan that blossom in the spring. It supports healthy mental function, boosts wellness, and is rich in antioxidants.
Ingredients: green tea, rosehips, rose, jasmine, natural flavor, hibiscus
TTB 2025. Since the first Old Barrel Tea Co. blend was so tasty, I decided to go for another one. At first I thought I might have messed up the steeping parameters because all I’m getting is a big hit of cherry cough syrup. But then I looked at the other tasting notes and they say similar things! So I’m comfortable saying this is a no for me.
This is from Cameron B! Thanks yet again! This is a cherry and rose flavored green tea that should also have jasmine. I went real gentle on that first steep to not let the base take over for these flavors. On the first steep, I’m really only tasting cherry, and it’s not really a good tasting cherry… more like cough drops. I really don’t taste any rose or jasmine here. It’s cough drops all the way. But LUCKILY also no notes of hibiscus here either. So that’s a plus. The blend sure does look beautiful in the tin though. I’m usually a fan of whatever cherry teas Cameron decides to move along (there have been a few)…. but this one is only okay and not my favorite.
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for a full mug // 30 minutes after boiling // 1 minute steep
Steep #2 // 28 minutes after boiling // 2 min
Sadly, I think the blenders thought cherry fruit and rose petals would create a cherry blossom flavor. :/
I love that I’ve found my tribe of cherry blossom purists! LOL!

I expected to dislike this, but figured I would give it a chance. True to form, I don’t like it. XP
It’s not its fault though, I’m not generally a fan of cherry flavoring, and these fakey sakura teas always taste like powdery cherry candy to me. So into the rehoming box it goes! :P
