From Old Barrel Tea Co

crisp apple ∙ earthy ∙ subtle grassiness ∙ citrus undertones

This blend is light and refreshing, with crisp apple notes and earthy undertones. It was inspired by a blend called “Pu Erh Fitness Tea” from a little tea shop we visited in Ireland. The ingredients in Crisp Apple Pu Erh support digestion, metabolism, muscle recovery and overall wellness. We like to think of this blend as a gym companion, but it is also a great daily drinker!

Ingredients: pu erh tea, yerba maté, lemongrass, apple pieces, rose hips, and natural apple flavors

Another new tea! I figured I’ll try one tea from my Old Barrel order each day, as honestly I’ve been sucking at sipdowns lately so I don’t want to make it even worse by drinking all new teas ha ha… ^^’

I love Old Barrel’s puerh blends, and I love apple, so this was a no-brainer. Plus, perfect for fall! But honestly I had a bit of trepidation when steeping it up, partially because there is a lot of lemongrass here, which obviously dilutes the amount of actual tea, and partially because the puerh smelled much earthier than some of their other blends.

But I needn’t have worried. I did end up using extra leaf because of the lemongrass, just to ensure I had enough puerh and maté flavor in my mug. This is quite different from the other puerh blends I have from them, which tend to be more on the sweet/desserty side of things. This is smooth and mellow, yet refreshing. The puerh and maté are somewhat equal in strength, though perhaps the maté pulls ahead just a touch. An unusual combination, but a nice balance of grassy and herbaceous with deep and earthy. And then there’s that crisp Granny Smith-esque apple adding sweetness and refreshment.

Just a really nice, mellow, natural-tasting apple tea. Another winner from Old Barrel in my book!
