Aroma: Full-on! Pine-lime and boilled sweets to the max. Too sickly and artificial for me.

Palate: Lemongrass, pine-lime and tropical fruit flavours. Fresh grassy green tea in the background. All round not a completely unpleasant taste but this really is over the top and tastes artificial (likley because it is!).

Overall: This is a tea that is severly lacking in restraint! But then maybe I am hard to convince as any ‘flavoured’ green tea has a hard time winning me over. I am also really put off by the addition of ‘nature identical flavours’ in T2 flavoured green teas like this – in my opinion the falvours are usuall overdone and teas this expensive should be able to achieve great flavour and balance from the actusal ingredients rather than the addition of flavouring – other great companies achieve this so why cant T2?

Tea Glorious Tea!

Since a trip to Japan as a young lad I have had a growing obsession with tea. Oolongs are my all time favorite but I love almost all green and white teas and love trying anything new.

I’m just starting out on Steepster but am looking forward to uploading a whole bunch of teas in the future!

I’m always keen to review sample teas so please PM me if you would like some reviews done!
