This tea is fine. The peach flavour is certainly there and not really candy-like. I think the grapes add some sweetness, which could translate to a perfectly ripe peach as well — certainly an interesting addition. The base tea is nothing to write home about.
I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos, herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens.
Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.
I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).
Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.
I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).

It seems it was an issue for both flavoured blacks. Mine haven’t much descriptive base too, if I remember correctly.
This is the one you sent me, isn’t it?
Shae yep!
Thank you! :)
