This is the tea that got me into tea, though I grew up drinking Celestial Seasonings Raspberry Zinger, this is the one that introduced me to the world of caffeinated teas so there’s a lot of “homeyness” in this for me.
The mango in this cuppa was much more mellow than usual and the ceylon was weaker (I probably understeeped it, patience is a virtue that I do not have) but it was still good. There are some sweet notes but they’re quieter, like a slight drizzle of honey. The cup is “dry” not the driest tea I’ve had by far, but my mouth feels “cleaner” which for me is something I enjoy for tea. In the past, the ceylon has never been tannic for me and the mango is not by any means overdone compared to a few other mango blends I’ve tried so this was the perfect cuppa for the first storm of the season :)
