Thank you Amanda for this sample in the cute little tin!
Its not what I was hoping for but I had very low expectations and therefore I am actually quite pleased!
I would really like to try Lupicia’s Sweet Potato Pie and may grab some soon. Its no secret that Adagio and I are not in love. I rarely find a tea from them I do like. I think Fujian Rain is my favorite. Needless to say – this ain’t bad!
Its not all that sweet potato tasting let alone PIE tasting but its not yucky at all and its really quite pleasant as a black tea.
It almost is like a Verdant tea (GASP I SAID THAT?) but only in the sense that it tastes like a nice black with some lovely natural flavors coming through of sweet potato. HOWEVER these flavors are not truly natural. I am struggling to make this make sense.
And by no means does this compare to a Verdant tea.
But what I am trying to say is I would not have guessed this for an overly artificial flavored tea of Sweet Potato Pie. I would more so think it a somewhat nice but not excellent quality black tea that had some natural nuances of sweet potato and a light bit of non natural flavoring to boost it.
BAH never mind – this is pretty decent. I will hang onto it and drink the rest but wold not purchase.
Thanks again Amanda :)
