It was not lost on me how similar tasting this tea was to the Apple Honeybush kombucha from the same brand, and those flavours are different enough that I felt like these should have tasted more distinct.
I liked this one a little more though because at least it had a more lively brightness and sort of peachy apricot flavour mixed in with the tangy of the komucha vinegar. The rose was subtle, but I did get a bit of a floral finish. Not as much as I’d have liked.
I wouldn’t repurchase this one again either, but at least it was marginally more interesting.
This was another kombucha brand I saw in Vancouver that we don’t have, and I picked up two of the flavours to try – including this one. I feel like you don’t see a lot of kombucha made with honeybush, so that’s what attracted me to it. I didn’t think it was bad, but I also didn’t feel it was memorable either. The apple came off more like apple cider vinegar but without a whole lot of sweetness or depth. It was the good kind of kombucha funk/acidity, but just not super unique as far as apple flavours go. The honeybush was very non-present, as well.
Easy enough to finish, no off notes or anything. But not something I’d buy again.
I don’t normally leave tasting notes for kombucha or bubble tea but, considering the increasingly warm weather, they and cold brews consist of what I’m mostly drinking right now. I don’t know how to really review or rate them though.. they’re effervescent? Fruity, sour, floral? Flavour-wise I get a good sense of both Apricot and Rose which means the name is accurate – what more can I ask for?
I discovered this brand while staying in Ucluelet (near-ish to Tofino) and was completely seduced by the Jasmine Hibiscus. I tried to stock up on that flavour, and accidentally grabbed a few of these as well, only to discover upon returning home that they sell this brand at select stores around Vancouver too. Woops. I have no regrets though.
