Peachy White
Name: Peachy White
Kathy's Rating: 5.0/10.0
Company: Tealuxe
Origin of tea: China
Price: $5/50g (1.76oz)
Tea form: Loose peach flavored black tea
What they say: A Tealuxe favorite. Peachy White combines a China black tea base with the natural essence of white peaches. They are just as juicy and aromatic as their yellow sisters, but considerably more sensual and flavorful.
Preparation method: Pour boiling water over tea. Steep for 4 minutes.
Review: I was expecting this to be a white tea with peach flavoring, but it's a black tea with peach flavoring. If you're looking for a great peach-flavored tea, Teavana's Peach Oolong (which I've reviewed) is more likely to knock your socks off than this tea. I know that black tea is not the same as oolong tea, but this tea left an acidic taste that I didn't like, and that made me wish I was drinking Teavana's Peach Oolong instead.
