Raspberries and creamy vanilla —like dessert without the calories.
Company description not available.
We took a vote for an after dinner tisane and this is what won. (I mentioned that raspberry is the BF’s favorite fruit earlier when we tried the Simpson & Vail raspberry flavored black tea.)
There’s an amazing smell in the packet, like a raspberry parfait. It steeps to a reddish orange (I would have expected it to be redder?) and the aroma leads with vanilla and ends with raspberry with only a very slightly discernible rooibos scent.
The flavor has a citrusy tang, and a smoothness from the vanilla. The tang smooths out into raspberry in the finish and the aftertaste. I don’t really taste the rooibos, which makes this a success for me.
My main complaint is I wish the flavor was a bit stronger. It’s fairly light and even slightly watery. Next time I’ll mess with the water/leaf ratio and see if I can get a bit more flavor. If so, I’ll boost the rating. The flavor, such that it is, is very nice.
Tea votes, lol. Yay for tea democracy :-)
Hahaha! Most of the time we live in a tea dictatorship, with me yelling, “Hey, I’m making some tea, want some?” and no one else has a lot of choice in the matter. ;-)
Well I say if you make it, you choose it!!
