Peach and blackberry is one of my absolute favorite flavor combinations. This tea is a wonderful, slightly sweet, comforting blend that reminds me of my childhood picking peaches and blackberries in the Hill Country with my grandparents. Peaches are one of my grandma’s favorite fruits, and blackberries were one of my granddad’s favorites. So, any time I see the flavor combination, I cannot help but think of the pair of them.
There’s definitely some brown sugar and pastry goodness, but the tea is mostly blackberries with a bit of peach flavor. Truthfully, I could do with more peach. The black tea base is quite robust, but, once cooled for the recommended 10 minutes, I don’t find that it overpowers the juicy, fruity notes. It’s really lovely, both hot and iced.
Considering the fact that I opened my sample bag about 4 hours ago and I’ve just got a teaspoon or two left, I think I’ll have to start my list of teas to purchase on Boxing Day.
