I love blueberries and am always willing to try a blueberry tea. The dry leaf smells like yummy blueberries, but there is also a whiff of hibiscus. The blueberry is the dominant scent, so I’m not too concerned about the hibiscus taking over. I am getting a strange note of… bubblegum? I feel like this might be because of the flavoring.
Sipping… There is definitely a tart hibiscus note. For those of you that dislike hibiscus, I recommend you steer clear of this tea. It changes into a rather nice blueberry flavor — sweet. There is also something a little bready in the background, a bit like a pastry. It quickly fades, though. I don’t know how I feel about the finish. It’s got a bit of a cooling effect, almost as if there is mint in the blend. There is also something artificial about it as well. This isn’t my favorite blueberry tea, but it isn’t terrible. It might make a nice iced cup.
