This tea has lots of lovely layers, as most Mariage Freres tea does. It starts off really fruity with hints of raspberry and strawberry, with a touch of sourness, and then it has this really nice caramel finish.

I would be careful how you brew this tea — I don’t like particularly strong tea and find it easy to over brew, but it’s easy enough to rescue with more water and honey.

I really enjoy this tea and would totally recommend it.

There was just way too much going on with this tea, I didn’t like it. One minute it was sweet, the next it was minty, then it was citrus. I poured it out. Blegh.

I really like this tea, although it’s not my favourite from this company.

It is very, very sweet and has a really nice overall taste and palette. It tastes fruity and really reminds me of powdered sugar. It’s not my favourite, as I said, but I still love it because all their teas are really well-made and so this tea doesn’t easily over-brew or over-steep and doesn’t have a super strong taste.

I liked this tea! It smelled delicious — as a lot of fruity or herbal teas do, but it actually delivered on the flavour. A lot of the time, with herbal teas, there’s a lot of scent and sugar, but not a lot of flavour and this one had a really nice citrus-y, apple-y flavour.

I enjoyed it as a hot tea but would also love to try it cold, as I think it would make an excellent iced tea. c:

I got this as part of a monthly tea subscription from Dollar Tea Club and I didn’t really like it. Initially, I thought I was going to love it because it had such a spicy palette — it almost felt like a chai. But it had a liquorice-y aftertaste that I just wasn’t into. I’m not a big fan of liquorice at all in general so I wasn’t expecting to LOVE this tea, but I was hoping to like it.

Oh well! I think my wife might like it all the same.

I had this tea for the first time at the Tea Centre the other day.

The flavours and ingredients sounded like something that really appealed to me, but the end product wasn’t what I had anticipated. It wasn’t bad at all, it just wasn’t what I expected.

I wanted something bold and fragrant – instead I tasted something smooth and mellow. The tea was coppery and none of the flavours were overpowering – but I think the rose got lost a little bit. This blend did have some depth to it, which I was happy to see but it was much softer than I expected.

I probably ordered the wrong blend to drink that day – but there’s nothing wrong with it. Now that I know what to expect, I’d like to try it again!

So I just tried this tea.

I think it’s one of my favourite teas from this company. It’s organic, so unlike a lot of other teas from David’s Tea it’s sweet without having the occasional artificial tint.

It has peppermint, black tea, cornflowers and coconut. It’s got this really cool, minty, fresh, creamy sweetness. It feels like quite a well-balanced tea. It smells really strong and sweet – it was almost overwhelming when I had a look at the loose-leaf mixture.

But don’t worry – it has a really lovely flavour. I didn’t put any honey or sugar in it – it was sweet enough, but feel free to experiment. I didn’t put any milk in it because of the mint base, but there’s that option too.

This is a welcome addition to my cupboard, and I was pleasantly surprised by this tea.

I love this tea. It’s probably one of my favourite teas ever.

I had it in a Steeps shop with my wife – she recommended I try it. It was the first Steeps tea I ever had, and I adored it.

It’s quite a strong, black tea which I really like. It’s got a really soft caramel undertone with toffee notes in there. It’s rather rewarding to find a tea that actually tastes like toffee, instead of being reminiscent of toffee.

Steeps tea have really nice quality tea, and this is evident in this blend. I like to have mine with honey, but you could definitely experiment with milk or sugar, or whatever you fancied. It’s also one of their most popular teas, which really helps speak to the calibre of the tea.
