From La Via del Tè

2011 is a blend created specifically to celebrate 50 years of La Via del Tè: three famous green tea, Special Gunpowder, Chun Mee and King of Jasmine, join together in a blend of sweet, strong aroma of strawberry and summer fruits, evokings the new tea trends. The modern interpretation of an ancient drink and perfectly balanced combination of wisdom and passion. A very Italian tea passion. Since 1961.

This is another Via del Tè tea I had put aside when I received the (huge ;-) ) order I made now almost 2 years ago. 2011 is the green blend of the Golden Jubilee blends the company put together in 2011 (the black blend being named 1961, the year Via del Tè was founded). Today I opened the pouch and immediately the smell of fresh strawberries came to me. According to the list of ingredients, this aroma is due to flavourings. It completely overwhelms the jasmine (from one of the 3 green teas in this blend, King of jasmine) or the pineapple supposedly present in this blend. Once steeped (at 80ºC, not longer than 2,5 minutes…all from info online as this is not indicated on the pouch, a shame really), the liquor is light yellow, and the aroma´s have turned more floral (because of the jasmine?). In mouth it sort of disappointed me a bit, as I hoped for a stronger green tea character, and I thought the fruity and floral notes in nose would translate better to the taste as well. It makes a nice afternoon tea, easy to drink even for people who aren´t into tea.
