Smells like peach pie filling. This is the most intensely fruity aroma I’ve ever experienced in an unflavored tea. I get the “honey orchid” fragrance too, but it’s not the first thing I think of. Tastes like an herbal tea. Honestly it’s like no other tea I’ve tried. In most teas you expect “hints” and “notes” of fruity, vegetal, floral, herb flavors hidden under tea’s natural flavor. This tea delivers strong, hard-hitting flavors, and if I was given a cup of this, I’d have a hard time deciding if actual tea leaves were used at all in preparing it. My palate isn’t sensitive enough discern the fruits and spices I’m tasting, but I can safely say this is a delicious tea. I’m excited for later steepings.
