Blackberry leaves
Blackberry leaves come from the same bramble bush that gives us blackberries, a plant that grows wild throughout Europe and North America. Dried and cut, they brew a mild, smooth, slightly earthy cup with a light, tea-like dryness and none of the fruit's sweetness. In Germany and Central Europe they are a classic base for herbal and fruit blends, pairing well with raspberry leaves, strawberry leaves, apple, rosehip and mint. Blackberry leaves are naturally caffeine-free.
Chamomile is a small daisy-like flower native to Europe and Western Asia, prized for centuries in Egypt, Greece and Rome. The dried flower heads brew a mellow, golden cup with a sweet, honey-like, apple-tinged floral aroma. Chamomile is lovely on its own and blends beautifully with lavender, mint, lemon balm, rose, rooibos and vanilla. It is naturally caffeine-free, which makes it a long-standing favorite for an evening cup, especially with a touch of honey.
Papaya is a soft, orange-fleshed tropical fruit native to southern Mexico and Central America and now grown throughout the tropics. Dried papaya pieces add a mellow, sweet flavor with musky, melon-like notes and a gentle tropical aroma. Papaya pairs well with rooibos, green tea, white tea and fruit blends, especially alongside mango, pineapple, coconut and passion fruit. Because its flavor is soft rather than tart, papaya rounds out tangier fruits nicely and makes a smooth, easygoing iced tea.
Rose petals come from fragrant garden roses, a flower prized for centuries in Persia, Bulgaria, Turkey and China. They add a sweet, romantic floral aroma with a soft, slightly fruity finish and pretty pink color in the cup. Rose is a classic partner for black tea, green tea and white tea, and it blends beautifully with vanilla, cardamom, berries and lavender in herbal mixes. A pinch of rose in Earl Grey or a creamy chai creates an elegant, perfumed cup.
Strawberries are the sweet, juicy red fruit of a low garden plant, grown and loved around the world. Dried strawberry pieces add a classic, jammy berry flavor and a sweet, summery aroma with a gentle tang. They are a favorite in fruit blends and pair beautifully with green tea, white tea, black tea and rooibos, as well as with vanilla, rhubarb, kiwi and cream flavors. Strawberry blends are delightful iced, or hot with a splash of milk for a strawberries-and-cream cup.

A little steeping tipStart at 3 min and taste — go up to 4 min for a fuller flavour. For a stronger cup, add a little more tea rather than steeping longer.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.

A little bit of paradise in your mug. This is by far the most popular tea in my workplace right now. It smells like papaya and strawberries and tastes equally good. Makes you feel as if you are on a tropical island swinging in a hammock rather than stuck in the office on a rainy day. It can be rebrewed and will still maintain a pleasant yet weaker flavour. May become bitter if made too strong. I had ordered 200g after having a sample tea and also ordered for many of my mates.

This is delicious but the flavour is a bit artificial at full strength so I usually cut it with a teabag

I have bought this twice and both times it has been different.
First time I loved it. Malty, sweet, and juicy wit strawberries.
Second time tasted very artificial and astringent. I’m not sure if I steeped it too long? I can’t say I hate it, but if you want a berry black tea, I’d go for their blueberry.
I will give it one more shot in the future.

I did not care for this blend st all. I think the rose is overpowering and masks the strawberry completely. No balance at all. I wish there was a strawberry tea option without the rosy overwhelm.
