Wow-you can really smell the cranberries while it is brewing. The dry leaf smells very fruity as well. I was startled a little as it brewed a darker color than I am used to with green teas. Tastes like green tea and cranberries-a pretty good combo together in my opinion.
sample from variatea this is more green tea like than the AU one i had. I don’t love this one, but that’s MY preferences, not the tea. I’m getting much more of a green tea vibe from this one which means i like it less just because of that. I DO like the pop of cranberry in this one – it’s got a tart, fruity taste. If you like green teas, this one is probably not half bad :)
Quick tasting note before I head to my appointment with the optometrist (ugh, still trying to figure out how I’m going to politely ask for my contact lens prescription since I always get mine online. Awwwwkward.) I split my sample packet with my mom, eyeballing half into my strainer and the other half into hers. The interesting part is hers got more hibiscus (wait, there must have been hibiscus in here despite it not being listed). I didn’t really look at the dry leaf.
But the liquor in her mug was pinker and tarter, so that’s telling. Mine had more of an obvious green tea base, however, for the most part, the green tea was ultra subtle. This smelled like cranberry crumble on the top of a muffin! Tasted like it too. Almost, maybe not quite as desserty.
Definitely wish I had more but on the other hand, not sure if I would want 50g. 25g would have been perfect. Oh well!
Sipdown (378)!
Finished off as a hot tea; very smooth, calm profile overall. I’ve had this one before, and I was pretty sure I enjoyed it but wasn’t 100% sure just how much which is why I went for a sample amount in my most recent order and not a 50g amount. Now I’m kind of regretting not going for the 50g…
I find I tend to crave cranberry a lot in the winter months; it’s kind of perfectly appropriate in terms of fruit flavours. The cranberry in this is quite lovely; very clear with sweeter top notes and a very soft, delicate tartness following the fall of the top sweetness. It feels plump, and ripe. In addition, there are hints of fresh apple and floral/grassy elements from the green tea base. Nothing is too strong in terms of flavour, even the green tea, and nothing is too light.
I definitely appreciate this one.
So let me just start by saying this smells amazing, both as dry leaf and when brewed. Just a rich candy/fruit scent. Sipping on the “hot” (read luke warm thanks to a few dogs needing some attention :P) cup, I am impressed the scent actually comes through in flavor. Granted it is a bit more muted and there is a bit of hibby tartness but in this case I don’t mind it because I find it sells the cranberry element.
