From Zhi Tea

Ingredients: Sencha green tea* with pineapple pieces*, rose petals*, calendula*, safflowers*, pineapple* and passionfruit* flavors
(*Organic)

Tropical green tea unlike any other.

Well-balanced, nuanced, with a flavorful green tea base and true flavor extracts.

Hand blended in small artisan batches, this tea is meant to please all the senses. Visually stunning with rose petals, marigolds and safflowers, this aromatic tea is also beautiful to watch steep. The perfectly steamed sencha green tea is also blended with bunches of pineapple and papaya pieces for a colorful and incredibly delightful tea. This is fantastic chilled tea, as well. We made this to be an unabashedly indulgent tea, so dive in. Can be re-steeped with great results.

I just have to say that this smells awesome prior to steeping/infusing – it smells like tropical fruit and once you infuse it’s tropical fruit scent PLUS tropical floral scents tied in!

Taste-wise it’s all of the above but you can certainly taste the Sencha! It’s sweet, juicy, fruity, grassy, floral, and Green Tea!!!

This is a very good flavored green!

Ok so I don’t think this is one that has aged well if I deduce the same one tea has been around since its first tasting notes on here 3 years ago. There’s something off about it. It doesn’t smell much like fruit at all, and it barely tastes like pineapple…and there’s just something weird about the aftertaste. I know I slightly steeped it longer than I wanted to, but it’s not the taste of oversteeping.

Another to join the garden I need to get started on soon, if only I hadn’t just painted my nails. Amanda problems.

So….I have a massive amount of backlogging to do. I ordered the giant box of fun from LiberTEAS on TeaTrade (aka the flat rate box of 30+ teas) a little while ago (I think it’s been a month…wow) and I have been drinking them but I never remember to log anything :P

BTW…thank you so much LiberTEAS, this was a really generous box of tea and I can’t wait to try them all (30 was definitely an understatement :) )

So this is the most recent one that I have tried from the box. I wasn’t able to pick out any of the specific flavors in this one…it just tasted “tropical-fruity”. Really good though – it’s smooth and the flavors blend together nicely.

Such a beautiful tea to watch steep! All of the petals and pieces of fruit. The aroma is quite strong of pineapple and passion fruit, I could inhale this all day. Unfortunately, I’m not getting much of that flavor in the taste. Just a very slight hint of passionfruit on the back end of the swallow. I’m not even getting much green tea flavor. Maybe this needs a longer steeping time or cooler brewing temp. The packaging recommended 3 minutes at 185F, a bit hotter than I normally brew greens.

Ahhh…I found a bit more flavor. If I slurp the tea as it is cooling the pineapple comes through and a sweet fruit flavor that might be the papaya is also present. Okay, this is a little better now!

Thank you to TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this tea. It is nice to be tasting this one again. I reviewed it for the Tea Review Blog previously: http://www.teareviewblog.com/?p=9930

It’s a good one!

Sipdown! (28 | 517)

So, I was excited to try this when I saw that it’s pineapple and passion fruit flavored.

However, I’m finding the flavor a bit too subtle. There is some nice tartness and pineapple-esque fruitiness. However, the base is a totally generic Chinese sencha that just tastes like a big ol’ pile of dry grass. And that just makes it taste rather flat for me overall. I feel like the flavoring needs to be stronger to compete with the grassy base.

Not loving it, but the overall rating is quite high so I guess I’m in the minority. :P

This tea smells very tropical when dry but it is more subtle once brewed. I don’t find it overpowering like some of the other fruit teas from Zhi. Tastes fantastic both hot and iced!
