OSULLOC Red Papaya Black Tea (Rosehip & Papaya scent) | Korean Premium Blended Tea Bag | Sweet Fruit Tea | 20 Count Tea Bags, 1.27oz

The tea is very fragrant, even in the package. It has a powerful and delightful aroma. The flavor is good and not bitter.

This tea has the most surprising and robust smell. It’s such a shock! However, the flavor is mild and lovely. I drink my teas either room temperature, or cold. I also took advice from a professional when making tea… never get the water to boiling. Boiling makes tea bitter; and he’s right. I keep that in mind whenever I see someone who states a drink as bitter. It’s expensive, but a wonderful indulgence.

The flavor is amazing. The black tea base is smooth not bitter. Not so robust as to take away from the fig or chocolate notes. Is that what they call, “balanced“? This would make a great gift for that tea drinker on your list or a nice splurge for yourself. It’s a great change up from what I find at the grocery store.

Let me first say I'm Filipina and can overcome a lot of smells, tastes, odors and textures when it comes to food. I was hooked on eating fish eyes when I was a toddler for Pete's sake. My mom would have to buy fresh fish heads at the fishing docks and just a small insight to my food culture and upbringing. But the smell of THIS tea is SO awful, it took me over an hour to work up the nerve to take a sip and still that was hard to do. It is like trying to build up the will to drink a bottle of perfume. I could only handle a few sips more before I removed it from my vicinity so it wouldn't fill my bedroom with it's aroma.I can only say the taste is definitely not as unpleasant as it smells -slightly earthy. Pear notes? Sure, I guess. I can't offer much else. The rest is going in the trash. I hate wasting anything, but I can't stomach this. I also hate being negative, but I have to be honest and prepare you... It's funky. That's also coming from someone who adds cayenne, Golden milk blend (turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, ginger) and moringa powder to her herbal mushroom tea every day. I can handle *the funk.*

I thought it was very tasty. It smells wonderful! The price is a little high for me to make this a regular purchase. It will be a once in a while for a treat kind of thing.

The Wedding Tea is our favorite to give as a gift. It smells strongly of grapes and tastes amazing. Well worth the money.

great tasting tea and aroma

The honey pear is one of the best teas I’ve ever had! It smells luscious and it’s so light, perfect for sipping while reading right before bed. One of my best Amazon purchases to date!
