Mean Green Tangerine from Uniq Teas

Steepster Score 1 Rating Rate This Tea

73/100

Mean Green Tangerine

Fruit Green Blend by Uniq Teas

Sweet and warming citrus aroma, with a clean and softly juicy flavor. A playful combination of Pan fired sencha tea with marigolds, safflowers, orange peel, and tangerine orange flavor.

Definitely didn’t get “mean” from the bag. More like “whiny.”

If you’re looking for another fruity tea, or even a pronounced green, it isn’t this one. It could work if iced, so that the cool flavors of (once again) papaya, and the titular tangerine could develop more. It’s not a tropical punch to the face. Rather, it’s that quiet cousin who’s safe to sit next to at Thanksgiving because they won’t ask about your plans for grad school or the Peace Corps. A comforting tea for those who’ve had bad experiences with greens before–but it’s not going to make you want to go back and start pursuing them.
