Cold Brew!
I found myself somewhere between underwhelmed and just “whelmed” with this tea. I really love pineapple and pineapple flavoured things (including tea) typically, so I wanted to try this blend because I could just picture how refreshing the combo of tropical pineapple and mint must be… but as soon as I saw the dry leaf in the bag I grew skeptical. It very, very much had the appearance of very aged fruit pieces and other ingredients, and the aroma was rather dull too. Definitely seemed like quite old tea.
Taste wise, it’s not necessarily unpleasant tasting but it does have a bit of an aged funk to it and overall the taste is pretty flat/stale leaning. The pineapple is the strongest note, which should be a win but I thought it was rather waxy and artificial seeming. The mint is light and kind of muddy/earthy which comes off as somewhat cacophonous with the sweet, candy-like pineapple rather than being the refreshing mojito-ish vibe I was hoping for.
Definitely bummed about this one.
