Dry this has a definite peachy aroma – as many others have noted it’s quite similar to Peach Tranquility (also by Teavana). I found it to have less of a saccharine quality in the tin, but my nose might’ve been ruined by Youthberry and the like. shrugs
After a slightly shorter steep than recommended it had an almost hay colour – which reminds me; I really need to get a proper glass mug instead of drinking it out of a repurposed beer stein – and retained a gentle peach and apple aroma.
When I first tasted it I was floored by how strongly honey seems to factor in as a flavour, despite not being on the labeled ingredients. The peach and fruit flavours (most notably a bit of pineapple) came out most readily when it was hot; as it cooled the honey and chamomile seem to push their way to the forefront along with a tiny bit of a bitter, astringent aftertaste.
While I will definitely be drinking more of this tea – I received 2oz as a gift – I’ll definitely be hurrying a little more to drink it while it’s still hot, as I find the flavours once cooled to be a little unpalatable.

have you tried any apricot in lieu of peach? i recently discovered i much prefer the one to the other. couldn’t care less about peach anymore, lol.
I haven’t tried apricot yet, but I’ll keep an eye out for it in the future. Thanks for the suggestion. :D

peach tag teams with a tobacco taste for me sometimes whereas apricot holds the fruit flavour and stays bright. might just be me though?
