Oh my, I kinda like Dilmah flavoured teas, but not when they contain caramel flavouring, because it is always so artificial. The same applies to toffee. Banana seems fairly natural.
And the taste? Quite bland and uninteresting/ Mainly banana with a touch of artificial caramel and toffee.
Nope.

I’ve had a lot of flavoured Dimmah teas before and this one seems pretty straightforward when compared to them. Classic solid base black tea and a reasonable amount of cinnamon. Nothing else but it’s enough. A basic brew with only a touch of spice really works.

Very warming and pleasant aroma, with nice interplay of ingredients: apple spiced with cinnamon and rounded up with vanilla.
In taste, as usual with Dilmah teas, there is a solid backbone of the decent black tea and the flavour part is certainly not overdone – in fact it is balanced.

Just like most of the Dilmah bagged teas, this one is also pretty decent, with solid black tea base and naturally-tasting pineapple flavour. Nothing extraordinary, of course, but decent as a casual tea.

Warming fruit tea, with slight fruity acidity, lots of fruit flavour (but not with cat litter notes sometimes associated with black currants), although it seems quite bland when steeped in my usual volume of 300 ml (200 ml would probably be much better). And although I almost never sweeten my teas, half a spoon of sugar merits this one, rounds up the flavours.

One of my regular “while working at the computer” teas. Pretty solid, malty, relatively rich, drinkable, bland in such a way that it doesn’t deconcentrate me. There’s not much more to say about it, honestly.

Solid base tea, complex and natural orange flavour, nice overall drinking experience. Nothing extraordinary, because it’s still Lipton, but definitely decent.

I really like the warming quality of this one. It’s really fruity, mainly from cherries, but also from hibiscus, rosehips and apple. It’s not sweet and has a slight pleasant sourness. And I guess it’s also going to be nice as a cold brew.

I can’t believe this is my first review of this tea, since it is one of my regular cheap-casual-bagged-tea-great-to-sip-while-I’m-working.
And it is quite solid for a cheap tea. Slightly bitter but bland enough to not divert my attention form work. Forgettable but not bad.
