Review of Sweet Orange (Nr. 166)

Half-litre pot at home, made from black tea leaves and small pieces of dried orange peel. Pours nearly clear orangeish brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of orange, with touches of black tea. The flavour is quite the reverse, with the bitter black tea notes being dominant and the sweetish and dry touches of orange staying in the background. Astringent but not aggressive aftertaste of black tea with smooth, mild touches of orange and acidic hints. Tasty and reasonably well-balanced. Definitely a fair price (38 DKK per 100 g). I like simple citrus flavoured black teas, and this one is certainly worth recommending.
