My expectations for this were low after having such a disappointing experience with the last two flavours I tried from Saint James. However, this was the first one that was drinkable to me. The raspberry flavour was distinct and fresh, but not strong enough to overtake the black tea. Most importantly, it did not have that metallic, unpleasant bitterness to the aftertaste. The trade off, I suppose, is that this was the first drink where I could taste the lingering sweetness of the stevia after the sip. However, I don’t personally hate stevia (even though it’s not my preference) and I would MUCH rather that sweetness than the awful chemical taste I was getting from the other two…
Still wouldn’t be a repurchase, though.
