I honestly wasn’t feeling like drinking any tea last night, but I was frigid from working outside for a little while and wanted something hot to take into the shower with me. (If you have a ledge big enough for a mug in your shower, shower tea is fantastic. 10/10 would recommend.) This is one of two decafs that I haven’t tried yet and smelled the least offensive.

Dry, it smells very pleasant, like a naturally sweet juice cocktail. When you dampen it with that boiling water, it…. smells identical to Fructis hair care products. If I was still using them, I would have instantly thought I managed to get some in the cup, because it tastes like them too in a non-soapy way. Is that a bad thing? Not sure! It certainly has the most flavor of any decaf tea I’ve ever tried. Not sure if I’ll be drinking it again, though, since I only made it halfway through my cup before I had to stop drinking the aroma of Fructis shampoo.

Flavors: Blackberry, Fruity, Mango

Boiling 4 min, 30 sec 3 g 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

Eel and tea lover. Big fan of dark oolongs, Nepal blacks, and fruity herbals. I occasionally make the terrible mistake of trying weird teas and then spend a good 5 minutes scrubbing my tongue with a toothbrush trying to get the taste out of my mouth.

Ratings:
100: Downright addictive.
95+: A definite favorite. This is something I’ll reach for again when I want something special.
90-95: I’d drink this again without question. There’s probably 4 ounces of it sitting by the tea kettle.
80-89: I’m glad I tried this and I’ll happily drink through the rest of the pouch. Might not be on the reorder list, though.
60-79: This is either mediocre and acceptable or I hate it and don’t want to skew the rating.
40-59: Uh, this is drinkable. Probably.
20-39: We’re entering the abyss. Here lies danger.
1-19: Please take me out if I ever try to brew this one again.

If I’ve recently reviewed something that you’d like to try, let me know! I usually buy teas in 25 gram samples and have extra to pass around.
