16 Tasting Notes
Light tea with a predominant coconut note and scent, the blueberries enhance the flavour but are definitely a secondary note. If brewed correctly, this tea is a well balanced mix of buttery sweet and bitter flavours, but it gets overly bitter even if infused only a few seconds too long. It can be infused twice without losing flavour. I drink it with half a teaspoon of stevia.
Flavors: Berries, Bitter, Butter, Coconut
Preparation
I love spice and citrus combinations, and I liked the idea of a spiced green tea, so I asked a friend who lives in Paris to buy me this tea. The flavour is pretty good, although I’d have preferred the spices to be slightly more prominent. The main note is without a doubt the citrus, with just a little additional warmth added by the spices. Good, but not one of my favourites.
Flavors: Citrus Zest, Citrusy, Spicy
Preparation
Nice, classic black tea base of medium strength with a strong red fruits flavour. The result is particularly pleasant, as the bitter aftertaste of the red fruits isn’t prominent. I usually drink it with 1 or 2 teaspoons of sugar, depending on the capacity of the cup.
Flavors: Red Fruits, Strawberry
Preparation
A delicate tea full of well balanced fruity flavours and flowery perfumes. The fruits blend together quite nicely but still they remain distinguishable. The overall result is very sweet, so I tend to use only a little sugar (a little less than 1 tsp) to bring out the flavour.
Flavors: Flowers, Fruity, Mango, Peach, Rose
