This is from my swap with AliceG! Fruity green teas aren’t usually my thing, but I was happy to give it a try. The green tea is the main flavor. On the spectrum of green teas, I’d say this one is more…musty? I was pleased that I could taste a little mango. It was subtle, but the flavor was closer to a fresh slice of mango than I usually experience in a tea. So I wouldn’t want this one often, but it was a nice cup, especially the realistic mango flavor. And it was nice to see a decaf green tea. Those seen to be rarer than decaf black teas.

You lost me at Decaffeinated. :P

Sounds good as far as realistic mango flavor though. I tried some of Lupicia’s mango and its good but borderlines a papaya instead of mango.

Yeah, I don’t like the way caffeine affects me, so I only have it a few times a week at most. Luckily there are tons of caffeine-free/low caffeine options these days! And yeah, mango is one of the tastiest fruits, but it’s sadly rare to find an accurately flavored mango thing.

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
