I honestly can’t wrap my mind around the low-ish rating on this one. This is my favourite peach tea I have found in my tea tasting history. And that includes loose leaf! This is a true peach, none of those scents like bath and body works or flavours like peach tang. This, when brewed, tastes like someone has dripped juice directly from a peach into your glass. My only sadness is that this is a small brand that was bought out by Bigelow. Which, yay getting the tea to more people, but still, I wish more independent companies were just that, truly independent.

Tina, we are very happy to hear how much you enjoy the Peach flavor, in the Charleston Plantation Peach. Although Bigelow, a small family owned company, did obtain this piece of the business, please rest assurred that the Charleston Tea Gardens will continue to offer their teas true to that of an independent company.

Kathy,
I greatly hope you are correct, and the integrity, high quality, and exceptional formulating of Charleston Plantation teas will not be pillaged, as so often happens when small companies are gobbled up by larger ones. It is ironic that I am reading this note now. I just picked up a tin of Plantation Peach tea an hour ago at one of our local markets in Fort Mill, South Carolina. The Charleston Tea Plantation has been very special to South Carolinians for a long time. It has more recently become special far beyond our beloved state.
As the only working tea plantation that remains in the United States, it is very important that the Charleston Tea Plantation be allowed to continue to flourish using the excellence that can only exist from independent effort.
Sincerely,
Stoo (A concerned Charleston Plantation Tea lover)
