361 Tasting Notes
Very warming, fruity aroma (with basically all the ingredients noticeable: apple, cinnamon, hibiscus, orange peel, fairly natural flavourings).
A bit sour, slightly sweet, fruity.
Pretty casual if not tad bland winter blend.
Flavors: Apple, Cinnamon, Hibiscus, Orange Zest, Sour
Preparation
Very warming aroma, with honey, citruses, fruity and flowery (bordering on perfume-y) notes.
Very delicate flavour, not dominated by addons. Probably too delicate, but I’m not going to use a higher honeybush-to-volume ratio, because the aroma is going to be overdone then.
Flavors: Citrusy, Flowers, Fruity, Honey, Papaya, Perfume
Preparation
Distinct lemon peel aroma, very refreshing, over malty foundation.
Very casual, easygoing impression in flavour. Unobtrusive base black tea plus a bit of lemon peel. Warming in winter, but probably refreshing and cooling in summer as cold brew.
Flavors: Lemon Zest
Preparation
Pumpernickel, vanilla, nuts and a bit of cocoa in aroma.
Rich and complex flavour, with solid malty body, distinct astringency and quite long aftertaste.
Very interesting and delicious tea.
Flavors: Astringent, Cocoa, Malt, Nuts, Vanilla
Preparation
Aroma is… caramel and mango, as can be expected. Strong, warming, fairly natural.
Flavour is caramelly, fortunately only slightly sweet, with base black tea barely showing through and mango undertones in the back.
Nice winter warmer.
Flavors: Caramel, Mango
Preparation
Lovely straw colour.
Lots of cardamom (mainly) and cloves in aroma, some apple and base green tea straw notes more in the back.
Lots of spices in flavour, with base green tea and apple forming a delicate background.
Not as warming as I thought it would be, but tasty, even if tad bland. Could use some more characterful tea as base and more apple, but I don’t see it as a flaw.
Flavors: Apple, Cardamom, Cloves, Straw
Preparation
Lots of orange peel (with albedo) and cinnamon in aroma. Partly natural, partly artificial. Partly pleasant and warming, partly unpleasant and disturbing.
And plenty of cinnamon in flavor, plus fresh citrusy notes a a bit of bitterness from orange peel.
I really like the orange part, it’s pleasant and warming. But the cinnamon… Either the tea is overdone with the spice, or this cinnamon lacks somewhat in the quality department. Could have been great, yet it’s only passable.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Orange, Orange Zest
Preparation
Lots of artificial (but pleasant) mango, some spices, a bit of ginger and general warming character in aroma.
A bit og ginger spiciness in taste, lots of sweetish mango in the background (boosted by stevia), fruity finish.
Nice warming winter brew.
Flavors: Ginger, Mango, Spices, Stevia, Sweet
