Tea Description:
Mango Tango is a fresh take on the classic tradition of flavored black teas. This blend of crisp Ceylon and fresh passion fruit and mango creates a light and fruity combination that is great any time of year. It brews into a deep, reddish liquor with a heady, bright aroma that lends itself to versatility; a steamy pot will warm you up when it’s cold out while an iced cup will keep you cool on hot summer days.

Taster’s Review:
The name of this tea brings back memories! When I was flavoring and blending teas way back when … I too had a mango flavored black tea … and it was named Mango Tango. But after taking the first sip of this tea, the only comparison between this tea and that one is in name only. This tea is much different!
We both started with the same tea base: a high quality Ceylon tea. But The Tea Spot wasn’t content with just mango … no. They also added passion fruit essence to their blend to create an incredible tropical taste that’s really quite delightful.
The combination of mango and passion fruit makes for a very satisfying taste: sweet, luscious, and smooth. And while I am sipping this hot at the moment (it’s far too cold outside to even think about iced tea! I want something warm and comforting!) and I am finding it very delicious served hot, I think it would make a really amazing iced tea too.
I’m really enjoying this tea – this and the other amazing teas that The Tea Spot offers has placed them as one of my favorite tea purveyors out there. I haven’t yet found a tea from them that disappointed me!
