Green Tea Tropical

Very soothing tea with just a bit of sugar to bring out those tropical tastes.

Maybe it’s boring, but I kind of like it that way sometimes!

Finished this up making a huge pitcher of iced tea! It was a nice journey trying Mighty Leaf’s sample set. I don’t think I’ll be buying a large tin of this or any of the other Mighty Leaf teas I have tried. I love trying new things! Anyway, I added a slice of lime to the iced tea and a little bit of Adagio’s lemongrass. Refreshing!

Drinking this lovely green again. I think I need to get more green teas!

Before I bought a box of this, I looked up reviews on mightyleaf.com and it had glowing reviews so I bought a box.

I didn’t like it, it was bitter and had a bad aftertaste. You could probably put a regular Celestial seasonings green tea and tell me it’s mighty leaf and I probably wouldn’t know..

daily.

Very smooth flavor. Smells wonderful when you open up the packet. Fruit flavors are very subtle but it gives it a great taste.

There is a strong tropical aroma from this teabag, which gives me quite some joy. Most teabags are weak and pale, but Mighty Leaf seem to be consistent with their potently scented teas.

Steeping gives a light yellow-lime brew, with more green tea than tropical scents. From the aroma, I can tell each apart, which leads me to believe the taste will be the same as well.

The green tea is not what I thought it would be, which is extremely bland. You can taste that it is green tea, but the quality is severely lacking.

The tropical flavor is barely there, probably enough to distinguish from the flat green tea. There is little to no fruitiness the aromas have teased about.

To be honest, I had low expectations once I caught the aroma during steeping. I didn’t want to believe that the green tea wasn’t going to be great, or even at least good, but it was too grassy to even think otherwise. It would have benefited with more tropical flavoring and a more subtle or at least better tasting green tea.

Normally I go for plain green teas but one day while studying at a cafe I thought I’d give this one a go – bad choice! It was awful. I had my hopes up because I have tried mighty leaf teas before and I had known them to be of good quality, but this one tasted very artificial and just plain awful. I did my best to finish the cup because I hate to let things go to waste, but I basically chugged it.
To be frank, if I could describe the taste of this tea in one word it would be “glue”.

It had a very light green tea flavor. The tropical flavor was not overpowering. Overall a very light tea. This does not mean that it was weak.

While I do like this, I need to expand my tea collection at work. Kinda boring at the moment.
