Taster’s Review:
As I’ve stated before, I absolutely love pomegranates, even though it’s a fruit I don’t eat very often, because they tend to be a bit on the pricey side, and since I’m usually the only person who eats them in my household, I think it’s a little selfish of me to choose such an expensive fruit just for me. So, when I find a pomegranate tea like this Organic Green Pomegranate Tea from Fashionista Tea, I am very eager to try it. It’s my way of indulging in one of my favorite fruits without feeling guilty about it!
And this is so good! This blend combines the flavor of pomegranate as well as raspberry … and I think it’s a very good combination indeed. The raspberry offers a hint of tartness that accents the natural tart note of the pomegranate, as well as a lovely depth of flavor. I taste both components, not just the pomegranate accentuated by the raspberry, but the raspberry as well, and I like the way these two fruits taste together. They taste smooth, sweet, and with just the right amount of tartness to come off as tangy without being puckery-sour.
The lush flavor of the organic Sencha also has something to do with the smooth, sweet flavor. It has a light, buttery taste, and just a hint of a vegetative note … nothing that interferes with the fruity character of this blend, just enough to remind you that it’s a green tea that you’re drinking. The best part of this tea, I think, is the buttery quality … its has a soft, silky texture and taste. It’s really pleasant!
This is a tea that tastes great served hot, but, the flavor remains as it cools, so it would be a perfect tea to serve iced as well. I like this one a whole lot!
