Lots of artificial (but pleasant) mango, some spices, a bit of ginger and general warming character in aroma.

Nice warming winter brew.

Strong lemon and honey aorma, seems fairly natural, balanced and warming. Only a trace of base black tea underneath.
Lots of lemon in taste without any acidity, then medium-quality black tea, than a subtle note of honey in the background, just its flavor, not sweetness.
Warming and casual, with no pretense to be anything more.

Flavors: Honey, Lemon, Lemon Zest

Very low aroma. Mainly straw notes of the base white tea plus a bit of peach and some vague flowery notes.
And the taste is so watery. Not enough base tea character, not enough peach and orange flowers.
Bland and completely uninteresting.

drank Pokrzywa z Mango by Lipton

Straw-like nettle character and fairly natural mango make up a really nice, warming, pleasant aroma combination.
The taste is mainly nettle, with only a bit of mango showing through. It’s not bad but you can tell that this tea comes from a big company.

Flavors: Mango, Straw

Boiling 7 min, 0 sec 2 g 7 OZ / 200 ML

Bio

I drink tea almost all the time.

However, my tea drinking can be divided into two main categories.

1. I work a lot at my computer and when I work, I need to always have tea at hand. That’s when I drink bag varieties, mostly black blends, often corporate ones. They need to be at least drinkable, of course, but I don’t focus on the taste much, though I don’t go below a certain level…

2. When I read (and read a lot) or when I’m just relaxing, I savor tea. That’s when the better varieties come into play, that’s when I use leafs instead of bags, that’s when I really focus on what I’m drinking.

I’m Polish, temporarily living in Copenhagen, Denmark.
