More RTDs that I picked up from TNT a few weeks back!
Gotta be honest that I ended up going for all four flavours available of this brand because I was attracted to the artwork on the bottles – very surrealist sort of style incorporating all the different fruits the flavours were inspired by.
This was the first of the four I tried and I thought it was pretty solid! One of the things I will always appreciate about the bottles teas that get imported from China is that they usually are very tea forward. Much more than the typical North American RTD. That was true here as well though it’s worth clarifying that all of the four I bought were still pretty heavily sweetened. I don’t think I much liked the jasmine in this drink though as it had a more perfume-y sort of jasmine that was a bit too much as it built up on the palate. The pink grapefruit notes was light and lively though, and the top note brightness they brought to the drink actually helped break up the floral profile a lot. I think in general the grapefruit and jasmine paired very well, they just weren’t super well balanced.
Awesome to see your note for this RTD here! I had this in China and agree with your assessment. The artwork on the Nongfu Spring teas is beautiful, especially this one :)
