Rooibos Mango (Nr. 809)

RateTea Notes
We would have translated the commercial description of this tea, but it said almost nothing about this particular blend, instead spewing generic platitudes about mango, and then separately, about rooibos.

60 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mr Bamsen (217 reviews) on May. 9th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from fine rooibos leaves and tiny pieces of dried mango and sunflower blossom. Pours nearly clear copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Intense aroma of rooibos leaves, with touches of sunflower and faint hints of mango. Bitterish flavour of rooibos, with notes of sunflower and... well, that's it, I'm afraid. I can barely notice any traces of mango in the flavour. Creamy palate with an aftertaste of rooibos and very faint fruity touches. Well, to be honest, I am rather disappointed. I love mango tea, and Carstensens makes a wide variety of good or very good ones. This one, however, is quite timid. Certainly, a decent rooibos tea to drink, but... where's my mango? At least the price is not that bad (38 DKK per 100 g).
