I had a cuppa from the shop this morning…. and enjoyed it immensely! However, David’s strawberry white has set the bar out of reach on this one. If I had to compare the two, David’s would win hands down.
This tea is heavier on the strawberry. Without any sugar at all the sweet yet tart aroma and flavour is strong. The white tea takes more of a backseat but it’s nice for a change. I can imagine, like most tea’s I love, that it would be fantastic iced.
As for the finish/aftertaste… it has that same mild pleasant taste but has a slightly acrid lingering effect that I don’t see in David’s version- I suspect because the strawberry is less prominent.
Overall, I would buy this again… but only hot in a cup, not to take home with me- and that’s assuming I can’t get to a David’s :)
(errr, just in case that wasn’t clear!)
Also, bring breathmints… I needed them!
