TasTEA Time! Twinnings Herbal Revive Blackcurrant Vanilla
What: Something that sounds really delicious
Where: Britain/England
Why Should I Care: I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty excited when I saw this tea. Even though Berry Vanilla type things are fairly common, it's hard finding tea with that flavor combination and Blackcurrant is pretty much the perfect match with Vanilla. Plus Twinnings is generally pretty good at combining flavors so my hopes are high. Oh, and it has Ginseng too meaning it's a nice alternative to coffee in the morning.
Packaging: IFWS
Non-Taste Senses: The tea is this reddish pink color that most hibiscus teas are. It smells nice, like berries and herbs.
Taste: I think this would work a lot better as a black or oolong tea, the herbal tea is almost a little bit too busy. It's not bad, you get a hit of berry and the orange peel gives a little bit of spice. The thing is, the blackcurrant and vanilla isn't in the forefront. That being said, it's nice with sugar. This probably wouldn't make a good iced tea.
Overall: It's not a bad herbal tea and it's definatly worth getting if it's cheap, but be warned that the blackcurrant and vanilla aren't the only flavors in there. This is on the lower end of try for me.
My Rating: Try it! Here's the site.
