Raise your hand, if you heard about feijoa fruit before.
Okay, this green blend contains moreover orange and kiwi. But about feijoas… at first I thought that the man told me about it, I thought he meant figs and using Polish word for that. Took only a sample, which was about 6 grams; and steeped it yesterday at home.
Honestly, the green tea base isn’t noticeable there at all, because all flavour is from the fruits. And while it was great — no off flavours, it was so mixed up, so I could say only tropical tea flavour. I steeped it for 3 minutes, so maybe the tea didn’t had enough time to reveal itself; also green tea from Georgia isn’t truly famous for its distinctive flavours, but it was fine. I am sure it would be great cold-steeped or iced, however, I ran out of this tea and I am not sure if I want to get 50 grams of it right now.

I am not raising my hand—that’s a new one to me!
I think I had a tea with feijoa once before, but I can’t remember what it was!
If I could send you some fresh feijoas, I would! We have 2 fruiting bushes in our backyard. Imagine a mild “green” pineapple flavor with a little strawberry and a touch of wintergreen. Texture is kind of like pear, or guava if you’ve ever had one.
It was my first time too gmathis, so I am glad to be not alone in it!
ashmanra, it seems I found that tea! Searched for Feijoa tea and results appeared: https://steepster.com/teas/t-leaf-t/3721-fabulous-feijoa
derk, well, that’s another reason for visiting you in California I guess! I think i may imagine that well + it is quite that what I have been noticing.
New to me! Off to learn… I wonder if they grow down here in SoCal, too?
