This came out a teeny bit watery, I waffled on the amount of water to use and probably should have gone with 12 ounces instead of 14.
The strawberry here is reminding me of something, not sure if it’s another tea or what. It is quite candylike and a bit tangy, but also a touch floral/perfumey. Can’t quite place it, but I’m thinking maybe it’s those hard candies with the strawberry-printed cellophane wrapper.
It’s nice enough, though the base itself is a bit weak (my own fault). Still has those nice savory notes that I associate with Fujian black teas, plus a touch of the trademark caraway. Would be nice to see more quality Chinese teas being used as a base for flavored teas, they have so much more character than the usual suspects.
