Cherry is one of those flavours that I think I would like in green tea in theory, but in practice have never found one that worked for me. It’s so hard to include that flavour in a blend without having it taste fake or medicinal.
Unfortunately, Sakura Allure is another tea that fails to make the grade. It smells okay, but there’s no heft in the taste – maybe that’s the bamboo cutting its way in, adding a sort of vegetal sharpness to the blend? Not sure. I added some honey to sweeten things up and it’s still not speaking to me. Ah well.
Thanks to darby for the sample!

Yeah, this was a flop for me as well.
And the thing is, I LOVE cherries! I so want to try a cherry green tea that rocks. I’m considering Miz by Nina’s Paris, but I have such a hard time figuring out how to steep their teas properly.
Hmmm. I bet lupicia has a cherry green that’s spot on.
