Review of Piña Colada (Nr. 177)

Half-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of black tea (Ceylon?) leaves and pieces of caramelised pineapple and coconut, as well as sunflower blossom, all sprinkled with flavour. Pours clear copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of coconut and pineapple, with mild touches of black tea. Ditto flavour, with a reasonable balance of the three ingredients. Mild, a little watery, palate, turning slightly astringent and leafy, yet retaining the sweetish, fruity notes. A reasonable flavoured black tea. Actually, I do not remember ever having tasted Piña Colada, so I cannot say how close to it this tea tastes, but it is enjoyable on its own. Fair price (42 DKK per 100 g).
