I know that I received this tea bag from postcrossing, but when and with what postcard with, that’s a mystery. Anyway… as a long trip back to Germany awaits me, with a chance of driving, I decided to tea that hopefully will pick me up and also the kiwi flavoured tea sounds interesting.
Oolong, matcha, turmeric, jasmine, kiwi, apple… a weird combo overall, I won’t lie.
And honestly, in flavour as well. Honestly it is quine mineral oolong with some grassy green tea (not sure if matcha at all), with somehow generic fruity line and turmeric which is rough on tongue. It just doesn’t work well together and feels overcombinated to me. Sadly, not much of kiwi for me, while I was hoping it will be probably most prominent fruit, but as I wrote, it was just generic fruit.
As of energy boost? Hard to say after afternoon sipping, we will see later on. But I don’t expect much.
