This was another “it just smelled good” treat from my husband’s unscheduled trip through the Savoy shop. And does it ever! Very sweet and tropical—I can see why it reeled him in.
Enjoying my first cup right now, and I think it’s one of the sweetest flavored green teas I’ve ever tried. Reminds me a lot of candied fruitcake fruit, which I love and eat straight out of the tub. Leans significantly to the cherry side.
I’m thinking a little additional sugar and this would be a really nice dessert alternative or a nice pairing with my mom’s apple cake. (Hey, Mom…would you feel up to baking…?)
Low temp and short steep (175, less than 3 minutes).

I love the way Savoy Tea Company has all those jars you can smell to help guide your tea choices. Most of the time my nose is a pretty good guide to what I’ll like.
Now if somebody can just perfect scratch-n-sniff catalogs!
Incidentally—second steep nearly as strong as the first. Good to know I’ll be able to stretch the sample pack.
