Taster’s Review:
This Rooibos Peach Tea from Nuovo Tea is a very flavorful tea, indeed! Lots of juicy peach flavor with hints of nutty, honeyed sweetness.
But before I start talking about the tisane, I have to talk about the packaging from Nuovo! I love the “stacking” tin concept! There are three tins, and they all connect one on top of the other, with the top tin serving as a lid for the middle tin, and the middle tin serving as a lid for the bottom tin. Very cool and a really great space saving idea for those of us who have more tea than they do places to put it!
Today, I’m sipping on the tea that is in the middle chamber: Rooibos Peach! As I eluded to earlier, it is loaded with peach flavor! And the peach tastes sweet and juicy – just like biting into a fresh, ripe peach! Mmm! And while I’m not always crazy about the flavor of rooibos, here that nutty sweetness seems to play well to the flavor of the peach. It brings a slightly honey-esque tone, and a hint of a woody flavor in the distance.
This is tasty served hot, but, its even better when it cools. I drank about half of my cup, walked away for about fifteen minutes because I got busy doing something else (housework, ugh!!!) and then I returned to my cup to find it had become almost “cold.” I took a sip and found out that it’s even tastier like that! This makes a great caffeine-free (and sugar free!) alternative to sodas and soft drinks for your kids. This is the kind of drink that you can feel good about giving to your children!
