Today’s cup is Shameless Berries Fruit Tea from Fully Loaded Tea.

Fruity blend remains light in the mouth. Nothing overpowers anything else too much. In fact, I would say at times any one flavor could be the most powerful. It’s actually pretty enticing for a bagged tea.

The aroma is light, with hints of slight astringency you’ll find in the tail.

Today’s cup is a Ceylon Lemon Tea from Dils Tea / Tea Packs USA.

This Sri Lankan black tea pairs nicely with the lemon flavoring. While the body remains astringent the lemon does well to distract from the strength of the brew.

Sadly the aroma was much lighter than hoped and carried all of the strength of the brew, with none of the lemon.

Today’s cup is White Orchard from Mighty Leaf Tea.

This Sri Lankan Green Tea (Sri Lanka used to be called Ceylon) is light, not grassy or vegetal. Sadly it’s a bit nondescript. Somewhere between a Dragonwell (Lung Ching) and a Kukicha to be honest. I’m not really sure what to think about it.

Today’s cup is a Mango Green Tea from Touch Organic.

As far as flavored green teas in tea bags go, this one is actually pretty nice.

The aroma isn’t all that strong, but the flavor is pretty decently balanced. It tastes like this is a bancha with mango flavoring though instead of mango pieces..

Today’s cup is a Peach Ceylon Black Tea from Dils Tea / Tea Packs USA.

This particular tea is very peachy. The flavoring is notably stronger than anticipated, though you could smell it through the packaging.

The aroma once brewed though was more subtle. The flavor in the tail was also more nuanced than in the initial start of the sip.
