I consider Pickwick a sort of average quality when it comes to bagged tea. You can get better but you can definitely also get worse. Much worse. This is a pretty old one, because I tend to forget that I have it, but if you consider the level of quality it’s pretty good. It’s not an outstanding tea by any definition of the word, but it’s definitely drinkable, refreshing and the elderblossom flavour is there without being synthetic.
Let’s not talk about the appearance though because it’s very unclear and murky to look at, although this might have something to do with the bags being several years old and probably past their prime.
I think this would work nicely for an iced tea. Perhaps with a dash of something sweet and fruity.
