412 Tasting Notes
Complex fruit flavour with slight sourness and a bit of tartness. Great black currant undertones in the background and aftertaste. Not bad for a cheap hotel tea.
Flavors: Apple, Black Currant, Pineapple, Raspberry, Sour, Tart
Preparation
Very strong artificial vanilla aroma, reminding me of vanilla pudding. Only traces of black Ceylon tea underneath.
Taste is better, because you can actually sense the tea and vanilla flavour is less intrusive here. However, there’s not much taste at all and all it leaves is a faint malty aftertaste.
Drinkable, yes, but mediocre and artificiel.
Flavors: Artificial, Vanilla
Preparation
Lots of ginger in aroma (which is spicy, citrusy, very warming), lots of turmeric in colour. Taste is quite distinct, spicy, but rather short (except for the lingering ginger spiciness). Only traces of honey flavouring in the back.
It’s not exactly bad, but too one-dimensional for me.
Flavors: Citrusy, Ginger, Spicy
Preparation
Mulled wine inspired infusion.
And yes, it smells like mulled wine, with lots of apple and cinnamon, very warming and cozy.
Slightly sweet from stevia, slightly acidic, with a touch of licorice, very flavourful. Great winter warmer.
Flavors: Acidic, Apple, Cinnamon, Licorice, Sweet
Preparation
Fairly solid base black tea with distinct malty character, only hints of orange and cinnamon. I really like the balance here, because this tea is not overdone, it still is a black tea only subtly aromatised.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Malt, Orange
