I was browsing through Sobeys when I saw that they had a bunch of tea on sale. $8 for 80g…sure I’ll try it. I bought this fully expecting that it wouldn’t be on Steepster. So I was surprised to see it here!
I was pleasantly surprised twitch this blend. I saw that there was roses in it, so I picked most of those out. The fig is something I have never seen in a fruit tisane before. I enjoyed it as a cold brew and I found the hibiscus wasn’t too overpowering here. It was sweet enough with no added sweetener. Not too bad!
Now I will have to cold brew the other tea I bought from Tea Squared—a flavoured green.
This is better as a cold brew as it is less buttery and more caramel but not so much better that I am finding it enjoyable. Thank you Roswell Strange for the chance to try it but this is one tea I am not sad to see go. 215.
I haven’t had this tea in years but when I took my first sips it really didn’t feel like it had been that long. That’s both because this is just such a nostalgic tea to me at this point but also because, in hindsight, it’s actually pretty dang familiar to The Silk Tea Co’s Golden Hour oolong blend. Both are fig teas with a bright sweetness, hints of floral rose, a mix of rich and sticky caramel and honey notes, and an underlying fruity quality that dives past the fig notes. And, now, I actually feel pretty good about sipping this one done sooner rather than later because I have tons of Golden Hour to fill that gap…
Oh, ashmanra, fig & lavender sounds just wonderful! It reminds me of walking through fields of lavender in the French Riviera near Cassis on a warm and sunny autumn morning several years ago (pre-pandemic) with a buddy, on vacation. We finished our harbor-side lunch nibbling on fresh fruits! I love France, and every time I visit, a new experience of delight awaits me! Now I just MUST get this fig tea, so as to cement the memory! Thank you!
You’re welcome! I hope it immerses you in wonderful memories!
The name alone is intoxicating.
It certainly caught my eye
Glad you liked this one! I really enjoy both this one and Cranberry Purifier, and Sobeys carries pretty close to the whole line up of Tea Squared loose teas (depending on which one you’re shopping at).
Here Sobey’s also carries a good selection of teas. I will have to look for this brand to see if they have it.
I will look for the Cranberry Purifier next time!
