Dewy Cherry

I tried this herbal for the first time last night. It was a little too late to drink anything with caffeine, and I was struggling with a sweet craving. Dewy Cherry was the perfect choice!

The aroma of this herbal tea dry is mouthwatering! Once steeped, the aroma is a little less strong but still lovely. From first to last sip this herbal is all cherry all the time. It’s sweet without being sugary and it has just the right amount of tang. Remember Luden’s cough drops? Just like that in the best possible way!

This is a great cherry flavored tea. Sweet and tart and yum just the way it is. I only steeped 3 minutes as the brew was getting very crimson, almost the color of a deep red wine.

I love fruit teas, this one has a very pleasant cherry flavor, a bit on the sweeter side as opposed to tart which is just the way I like it! Has a very nice, reddish color. Also perfect with a tiny bit of brandy. :)

I ordered this mostly so I could try mixing it with other teas. But I wanted to try a cup of it straight up first in order to get a feel for the flavor.

Appearance: Thick red liquor that smells like sour cherries.

Taste: What else can I say about this other than… it tastes like dried cherries. I mean, I know that’s exactly what it is, but it really, really tastes like it. It’s sweet and a little tart. A bit too potent for me as is, but I think it’ll be wonderful with both rich black teas and green oolongs. Excited to go all ‘mad scientist’ with this one!

Very sweet, but not too sugary. I love it because I can’t drink caffeinated tea’s and it still has plenty of flavor. I also mix it with a white tea when I want something a little more mellow, but with less caffeine then straight white tea.

This smells overwhelming like cherry cough drops so I didn’t have high hopes for it going in. I tried it both hot and iced thinking I might like it one way over the other, but really I thought this was a bit gross. Part of the problem is that I just can’t get past the smell. I really did try, but who wants tea that smells like cough drops? It tastes more like sour cherries when cold, but I still get the cough drop taste to it. Hot it was like drinking warmed up cough syrup, so not at all what I was hoping for.

I’ll probably mix the last of this sample with some China breakfast tea and see if what happens during a cold steep. The China breakfast that I have is really strong so I hope i just end up with a hint of sour cherry when I’m done.

If you like cherries, the aroma is amazing, both dry and wet. It has a nice, tart cherry flavor, and isn’t too sweet at all. Just the way I like my fruit tisanes.

This is seriously wonderful cherry tea. Yes, it SMELLS like cherry cough drops (not a bad thing to me) but it tastes like cherry straight up. I’ve used it flavor my oatmeal even! I use fruit teas to blend, and this is my favorite.

Usually, I love anything cherry. But this… it was just not what I was hoping for. The cherry taste seemed way too strong and artificial. I was reminded of cherry cold medicine and never finished my sample tin.
