Although this tea is NOT creamy and contains NO vanilla, when freshly brewed it reminds me of a cake fresh from the oven – hot and sweet-smelling! After it has cooled a bit, the various fruity notes gradually stand out. Mango is the dominant flavour (you know, mango as in Body Shop’s mango body wash… this doesn’t mean I don’t like it, though), and the fragrance of orange peels is unmistakable. There’s a bit of lemon too I think. I can’t say much about the green rooibos base because it is very light and the bright fruity flavours have totally stolen the show. If you love fruit juice you are going to love it, but look elsewhere if you are a fan of rooibos!

Bio

A devilish girl who lives up to the post-80s youth stereotype – hedonistic, frivolous and rebellious – except I love traditional afternoon tea rather than a quick caffeine fix at Starbucks.

I make a living off others’ criminal activities. It’s a busy job and I really wish I could retire, so I can become a full-time afternoon tea connoisseur instead. :j

I love any tea that has nice scent, great flavour and lovely packaging. My current top favourite brands are Mariage Freres, T2, and THE O DOR. ;)

I am now practising mindfulness as a way of living. I decide to use tea tasting as a means to meditate in my daily life. My tasting notes here will therefore be my meditation notes :)

I’ve got no time to update my Pinterest and blog since I became a mom. Nevertheless, if you feel curious, you are most welcomed to visit these abandoned pages:
