Adventageddon Day 9 – Tea 2/4
Steeped up both packs of today’s tea as a nice, big Western pot that I could drink while watching up on the Doctor Who 60th Anniversay special episodes.
For only nine days in I feel like the amount of stone fruit flavoured teas has been quite high, though that’s certainly not a complaint. Maybe it feels higher because there’s been a lot of stone fruit jams too (some of the best ones so far, IMO). What I found funny about this one was that even though it’s mango and apricot it just tasted so dang peachy to me. Like the peach ring gummy candies but without the malic acid.
I did think this was a bit bitter rough on the back end of the sip. Just a smidge bitter and astringency with a more noticable cooked leafy greesn/vegetal note. Not my favourite thing in the world. Kind of a reminder of why I don’t love green teas. So a bit of a “mixed” impression of this one overall.
