One of the tea’s in this month’s gifted subscription box from Tea Runners!
This is a very simple blend and you can tell that the flavouring is really doing all of the heavy lifting because it’s literally just green tea and rose petals (which are only a visual accent) with a thick and very sweet and distinct combination of caramel and green apple flavourings. It might, however, be one of the best smelling caramel flavourings I’ve come across because when I opened the bag I knew immediately that this was the distinct golden chewy caramel you’d get on a caramel apple. Not just a vague sweet sugary smell like so much caramel flavouring out in the world…
Steeped up it’s lovely! I normally don’t love green tea but it’s pretty well masked by these two really flavourful and rich flavouring additions. Sweet gooey caramel first and then the snap of fresh, crisp green apple. It’s the perfect balance of flavours to really simply but effectively get that across and the green tea is noticeably adding body (and caffeine) while not tainting the taste.
Yes. This is a green tea that I can definitely get on board with.
