Nothing wrong with this one, just nothing that made it especially noteworthy.
Ingredients:Green tea, white tea, papaya pieces, pineapple pieces, strawberries, raspberries, rose petals, mallow blossoms, flavouring.
It is notable, however, that this is the first tea that includes a white tea, though definitely more green. Which is making me think I made a mistake and might have overdone it for the white during brewing, but it didn't actually taste too bad.
Whites are the most unprocessed of the teas, being just plucked from the tea plant and dried. As such, they have a much more delicate flavour, and should be brewed at about 70 degrees.
Brewing notes
I brewed this five times at 80 degrees each time, because I know that I don't like cold greens.
Tasting notes:
Verdict:
The papaya in this was the strongest flavour. It was green tea, and then papaya combined with the pineapple. It was sweet, I'll give it that, but it's another case of it almost being two waves of flavour, which was fine, I just wouldn't go for it again.
Lessons Learned:
Read the ingredients and see if brewing should be changed based on what you find there instead of ignoring it?
