This is the most complex-tasting fruit tea I’ve ever tried. 15 minutes of slowly brewing a whole 5g of tea in just 200ml of water is so worth it.

It’s described as blood orange pomegranate flavour, but I get more passion fruit from it than pomegranate. Sweet tropical fruits and citrus swirl in the aroma, tart blood orange sweetness dominates the flavour.

Notes of raspberries and passionfruit create that exotic berry twist, but it’s the hints of fig, pomegranate and apple that give this tea depth and complexity.

I was gifted this tea to review on Instagram, but I don’t think that has biased me. I was expecting the tea to be mediocre (as it was free) but was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

My only complaint is that it is very dusty. That last 1/4 of the tea in my cup where the dust settles is undrinkable.

What a long ingredients list! And well; a new company I never heard of. Maybe one day I will place the order.

A British tea lover with the crazy idea that she can review every possible tea. Ever. Check out my blog to see my progress so far…

My all-time favourite tea brands that I go back to for a cup of comfort:
Clipper
Whittard of Chelsea
English Tea Shop

I rate teas on a spreadsheet, giving marks out of 10 for:
Condition of the tea leaves/ingredients,
Quality of ingredients (e.g. artificial flavours or freshly dried fruit?),
Dry aroma,
Wet aroma,
Flavour,
Texture,
Sensation (how does it make me feel?),
and Colour.
Then, with a little head scratching, I do the math and work out the score out of 100.

Open to tea swaps – even internationally!
