Taster’s Review:
The tea I’m reviewing today is called Maple Splash Tea from Tealuxe. Maple Splash Tea from Tealuxe is no longer listed on their website but I thought it was worth a mention anyways. If you like Maple you will like this tea. Maple Splash lives up to its name that is for sure!
I love the aroma but that is because I love maple but I also adore the addition of popcorn in this tea. The tea leaves are a drab brown and are smaller in length while still being tightly dried and semi-twisty. Some of the wet leaves look like twigs while the others look like your typical small to medium sized black tea leaves.
After infusing Maple Splash for about 3 minutes I noticed the cinnamon aroma pop thru a bit better. The Maple aroma deteriorated a little but was still in the forefront.
This is a sweet, warming, comforting flavored black tea with Maple Splash, indeed! Maple Splash Tea is a ‘party in your mouth’ and I sure wish that Tealuxe kept it in their shop! Another noteworthy flavor to mention is the aftertaste of sweet-woody, too! The flavor and aroma linger and I like that!
