Peachy's Pantry: Kusmi Apple Black Tea Recommended by Whom You Know

I don’t normally expect apple to be paired with tea. However, Kusmi does a wonderful job with their Apple scented black tea. This twist is actually a stupendous match and makes for a luscious and smooth tea. Kusmi should be known for these unique aromas as no one does it better than them. Even the strong and vivid colors of these teas are great. A great total package.

I have pretty simple taste when it comes to tea. I like my tea to taste like tea, so I wasn't so excited to try the apple flavor. I was completely wrong about this one. It is delicious. The apple is very subtle and more importantly the tea tastes like tea, not some weird hot apple drink. The coolest part about this tea is how the tea "blooms" in the bag. This tea would make a great present for anyone who loves sipping tea. I highly recommend it.  

This black tea from China is flavored with apple.  I have never been a fan of fruity teas, but this tea is really lovely.  Kusmi Tea's Apple Tea is not at all overwhelmingly fruity.  Rather, it is refreshing and light, a perfect tea to enjoy this spring!  Kusmi Tea, founded in 1867 and established in Paris in 1917, is known for their smooth and pleasant tasting teas.  This Apple Tea lives up to those claims, it is superb!  Enjoy some today, plain or sweetened (I opted for plain), it is lovely no matter how you choose to enjoy it!

Kusmi Apple tea is so deeeeeelish! I don't even know when to begin! The aroma fills up an entire room. It smells like someone has cut up a fresh apple. The taste - well irresistible! You can taste the flavor of sweet caramelized apples. I drink a cup almost every day - trust me you will too!
