Tart and jammy, as you might expect from a blend with hibiscus and rosehip as its main ingredients. The raspberry is just about there, but by no means a prominent flavour. The blackcurrant comes off quite nicely, however, and gives a taste akin to hot ribena. It’s very smooth, more so with a spoonful of honey. Probably not a blend I’d actively seek our for its flavour, but I do appreciate the wellness aspect (added echinacea & vitamin D) at the moment with this killer cold.
Sipdown (2903)!
Definitely a bit of a more unpleasant, medicinal and herby undertone to this tea from the echinacea inclusion so I wouldn’t call it a favourite from a flavour perspective, but I appreciate that it was an important ingredient for the wellness direction Twinings was targeting. I did enjoy the black currant flavour though, which I thought was a great balance between tart and more jammy.
Because black currant is so much less commercial (and often perceived as medicinal) here in North America, I do feel like this is a blend sooooo much more suited for the UK. I think between the echinacea, elderberry, and currant this would be a tough tea to pass off to the average North American tea drinker…
