"The initial tartness slides into sweetness pretty quickly. I still don't taste other flavors that clearly, though it's easy to attribute the complexity of this tea to them; this isn't a single note tea."

This is called a calming tea with sweet and sour flavors made up of chamomile, blood orange, cranberry, apple, and cherry and hibiscus flowers. I’m a little wary of the cherry flavors since my only experience with cherries are of the artificial cough medicine horrors from childhood and a chemistry teacher who absolutely insisted maraschino cherries were 100% synthetic. My fears increase when I can pick out the cherry scent from among the other, fortunately friendlier fruit scents. The scent of the tea is light, and I’m happy to report that the flavor is more of the cherries in cheesecake (ok, there were more cherry experiences) than in cough medicine. The initial tartness slides into sweetness pretty quickly. I still don’t taste other flavors that clearly, though it’s easy to attribute the complexity of this tea to them; this isn’t a single note tea. This is very drinkable and a great accompaniment to dessert and recommended for any cherry lover.
