The peach is pretty strong, and it goes well with the jasmine (which is not overpowering as I thought it might be). I can also taste some strawberry if I search for it. It tastes generally fruity overall, an armoa which is complemented by the tea's mild sourness. It's only very slightly sweet, but also not at all bitter. Moderately astringent.
I tried it a few times both with and without sugar, and I decided that I like it better without. You might think differently.
When I first tried it I thought it tasted watery, like fresh pieces of fruit soaked in water for a few minutes, but when I got used to it I decided that there are in fact a lot of nice and actually fairly powerful flavors. I like it. The tea flavor is definitely a lot weaker than even other jasmine tea I've tried, though. Despite this, the caffeine content feels about the same as any other green tea.
I might buy it again someday if I want something fruit-flavored and not really tea-flavored, though with the same general vibe as tea (not too sweet, complex flavors, etc.).
