Taster’s Review:
Do you love mango? Because this is the BEST mango tisane I’ve ever tasted!
The mango flavor is strong! But mango is not the only flavor here. I can taste hints of pineapple and tangerine. I don’t taste much from the strawberry, but every once in a while, it peeks its way through the other flavors. And here’s the best part … there is NO hibiscus in this! Yay! I’m so glad that Fusion Tea Room decided to leave the hibiscus out of this blend.
The overall flavor is sweet and fruity. It has a very nectar-like quality. I can almost feel the pulpy texture of the mango on my tongue. There is a hint of tartness to this – not a lot, just enough to keep things interesting.
Obviously, this tisane is mostly about the mango… but I like that I can taste these other flavors in there too. While mango is the guest of honor at this party, the mango seems happy to share the attention with some of its friends!
