Company description not available.
This is a bit of a weird tea. I’ve got a cold brew of the steepings going to see how that changes things but I don’t think i need to order this one again. It’s a neat mix of the blueberry and strawberry but that semi results in a vague “berry” like flavour that is neither one nor the other. There isn’t much astringency in this one, which is nice but i almost want the flavour to be sweeter, or stronger. maybe both. Still, glad to have this to check it off my list. only 12023978120938109283 more upton samples to try! :)
Not great, but not terrible. I think I have come to the conclusion that Upton is not my first choice for flavored tea. Hot it was a fine berry tea. It was kind of nice to have both blueberry and strawberry flavors going on. By the time it had cooled enough for iced tea, it had turned slightly bitter. I guess it could have been my brewing.
This was another from my swap with Azzrian (my, that was at last Christmas and I’m still working through it all… Must remember to clear cupboard then swap…). I’m sure I’ve tasted this but not logged it before too.
I made this to take to work this morning. Its fine. Tasty, not bitter, berryish. Just not mind blowing. I’ll happily finish it off but not something I’d love to order. But I do like how my sample bags came printed with my name on it, lovely touch!
This was alright. I am picky when teas are fruit flavored. The flavoring just wasn’t tasty. It was fake tasting. I tried it iced, and finished my cup. I didn’t care for the black tea either, just wasn’t OMG worthy. It does smell like it tastes, which isn’t a plus. I’m just not loving it.
This tea is mediocre. It has an artificial berry/fruity scent. It’s difficult to taste any of the flavoring, but the tea base is pretty good tasting. It has a sharp, clean taste that isn’t too heavy. I’m not going to buy this again, as Upton has many flavored black teas that are way better.
I’m still working my way through the first batch of sample packets I ordered from Upton; I’m thinking I like their black teas much better than their fruity ones.
I’m probably with you on that one. So far I am loving a lot of their black teas while their flavoured teas leave a bit to be desired. Still have a bunch to go through though before i’ll let myself order another box. I was pretty happy to get to pick up 3 brewing baskets with them on super sale though since it gave me an excuse to try a bunch of teas haha just wish their samples were resealable
