This is alright, I enjoyed it but I don’t think I would buy more.
I’m drinking it iced, and there’s just a slightly off taste to it, which comes off to me as apple. It could be the peach, I don’t know, maybe it’s a combination of the two and the floral aspect? Because I don’t get much floral notes and there’s definitely some petals in here.
It’s an interesting base for a flavored tea, I wish more people used Assam for flavored black bases because it just makes it a bit more interesting.
Unlike other notes on here, I do get cinnamon. That’s why I made this iced, I did not expect to taste any given it seemed it was hard to find, but it is indeed present. And actually it’s not bad at all. It definitely comes across as a baked dessert, although yes, the baked good notes could be stronger. I suppose the assam helps with this too.
The other positive is that the apple does taste like apple rather than just providing a sweet, tart fruit flavor. The peach is actually what I feel like it’s lacking.
I do love how The Persimmon Tree uses hibiscus. You can’t really taste it, but it does taste like it’s boosting other flavors.
