Hmm. I’m a sucker for flavoured teas, and always look for something interesting (and inexpensive!) to try at the grocery store. I’ve been treating myself to some better teas lately though, so I knew there was a chance that a cheaper one like this might not do the trick anymore.
I wasn’t totally disappointed. White tea is a new thing for me, so I don’t know what to expect there, but it kind of reminded me of another cheap green tea (that’s not just me, because it’s labelled as just white but the ingredients list says “white & green tea”).
The smell of mango and peach is definitely present both dry and when steeped, which is a plus.
The flavour was nice – light and clean, with a hint of tropical fruitiness. The fact that there is no actual mango or peach listed in the ingredients is a turn off though! I will try this again, and think it would be interesting to make iced, but this tea is nothing special. I was right, now that I’ve tasted better quality teas, the grocery store ones just aren’t comparable.
