Plantation Peach from Charleston Tea Plantation

ashmanra drank Plantation Peach by Charleston Tea Plantation

This is the loose leaf version. I gave instructions to my youngest to only give this about three minutes since the leaf particles are rather small. I must say it came out rather nicely and the peach flavor was quite good. This is definitely going to be my lunchtime iced tea when the horrible heat hits this summer. The tea base is strong enough to stand up to the flavoring, the peach flavor tastes natural, and it is great without additions.

Its never occurred to me to ice my peach tea. Not the brightest bulb in the room.

I love Plantation Peach! I only have it bagged but it is still worth it. Mmmm.

K S…I have tried this one iced already and it is VOON-DER-BAR! I think you would like it! I was actually a little disappointed in Harney’s sachets of Midsummer Peach when I tried it beside this tea, and not because it is decaf. I just thought the peach flavor tasted artificial next to this one. My guest today said this one tastes just like the fresh South Carolina peaches that are sold beside the road here in early summer. The farmers drive up from SC almost every day to sell their peaches.

Tina…good to know that the bagged version is good! It is probably more readily available. This was a gift from someone who actually went to the plantation.
