I love fresh mangoes and fresh peaches, but I have yet to find a Mango and/or peach tea that I love. For some reason these flavors keep coming up as alright but not great for me, regardless of the tea base or the brand.
There’s a pattern for most of these mango/peach teas that the overall Steepster grade tends to be higher than mine. Maybe I have an over expectation of these teas. I want the taste of a fresh fruit blended with the tea, but to me the flavor mimics more the taste of the dried fruit with a slight I don’t know…maybe hay? undertone. I can see how others would say this tea is good, there’s a nice balance between the tea base and the flavors. I just think it’s not a taste that I personally go for. I’m glad I got to sample this in my Fruit try me pack, but it won’t be making my reorder list.

this one was kinda meh for me as well. If i ever find a good mango tea i’ll hollar ‘cause now that i’ve found my grapefruit tea i’m on the hunt for a good mango one.
I am a mango hound and Lupicia’s Ripe Mango Oolong is my favorite that I’ve tried so far, very juicy.
@Sil – nice to know I’m not the only one still searching for the perfect mango tea.
@Alphakitty – I’ve never tried lupicia teas, I’ll have to remember to check them out when I drink down some of my samples. Thanks for letting me know
Sil, if this whole Lupicia thing works out we may have to work out a joint order from there, as there are sooooo many teas I’m dying to try (and Ripe Mango Oolong is literally making me drool.)
Sil – oooh Australia…I went there went I was a teenager, and I loved it (taking a minute to bask in the memory). It’s summer there now too isn’t it? – I bet the mangoes were nice and juicy
