Aroma is, well, very strawberry-ey. Smells initially like strawberry and little else, a little like strawberry jam or strawberry shortcake...not so much like fresh strawberries.
The base tea is not as evident, aroma-wise, but it shines through in the flavor: bold, with a bit of bite. Brews a rich brown color, but quite clear.
I liked this one less than the other two flavored teas that I recently tried from Ahmad, the Peach Passionfruit (my favorite) and the Lemon-Lime. It wasn't bad, just wasn't my favorite flavor. I think people who really like the flavor of cooked strawberries and think it goes well with tea might really like this one. I can see it pairing really well with plain shortcake.
