Product Description:
This tea blends together the taste of juicy blueberries with premium white tea from Fujian province, China. Very fragrant, like freshly harvested ‘highbush’ blueberries (the aromatic variety). Soft, rounded mouthfeel with a clean, refreshing finish. A customer favorite, this tea is delectable both hot and cold.
Ingredients: white tea, blueberries, natural blueberry flavor
Taster’s Review:
This is a very refreshing white tea blend that smells as good as it tastes. As the tea steeped in my kitchen, I could smell it in my living room!
Because this is a white tea blend, it should come as no surprise that the flavors here are delicate. I like that the berry flavor does not attempt to surpass the white tea; rather than compete, they work together. The white tea is soft yet crisp and has a faint grassy taste. The aftertaste is sweet with a light “tingle” of tartness on the tip of the tongue.
The berry flavor is sweet, but not too sweet. It melds well with the fresh tones from the white tea, creating a very vibrant taste – surprisingly vibrant for such a delicate profile. A very pleasant cup that is light enough to enjoy any time of day.
Another delicious tea from Adagio that I received as part of their Sweet Melody Collection. (Look for it in the “Gifts” section on their website!)
