Mint tea




Peppermint tea taste test

They are fairly generic these peppermint teas; they all have the same flavour. The supermarket own labels are even the same price and same packaging: loose bags in foil in a cardboard box Possibly, they are all made by the same supplier. When comparing them side by side, there are moments when they taste different - one will taste brighter, and the other more earthy; then the next moment that is reversed. When comparing the supermarket own label next to the brand names, Twinings or Taylors, the same applies. Essentially, there is no difference in taste between any of the peppermint teas. The brand names will be individually packed, and Taylors wins out on that one, but when drunk the difference disappears.You can pay a bit extra for a brand name with attractive individual packaging, or go for cheap and cheerful job lots.
