Taster’s Review:
This is a very tasty pomegranate flavored green tea.
The green tea base is a very flavorful green. It is a light-bodied, vibrant tasting tea with a fresh, clean flavor. It is somewhat grassy but certainly not off-putting. There is a fair amount of astringency to the tea which I think highlights the tart nature of the pomegranate.
The pomegranate flavor is sweet and tart. I like that the flavoring here is delicate enough that it doesn’t overwhelm the flavor of the tea, but, not so delicate that it cannot be tasted. It has that tangy “tingly” taste that lingers in the aftertaste, an experience that is much like what I would taste if I were to pop a plump pomegranate aril in my mouth.
The dried raspberries do not contribute a lot of flavor to the cup, and I think they are mainly there for aesthetic purposes, but, I can taste a sweet hint of raspberry to the cup. It is faint, but it is there – and I like the flavor that it adds. I also LOVE that this tea is organic!
This tea is a pleasure to sip while hot, but, even better when its iced. It has an exhilarating taste that is sure to quench your thirst! I do recommend a pinch of sugar if you choose to ice this one – it will help enliven the flavors just a bit. Yet another great tea from Element Tea!
