Plum Deluxe Tea Review

I chose two teas to try, Reading Nook Tea Blend and The Self Care Blend Herbal. Plum Deluxe has many varieties of loose leaf teas to choose from that are unique, healing and comforting.

I am a tea enthusiast and love to get the chance to sample teas. Both the varieties I tried were very different from each other and yet great for different needs.

The Self Care Blend Herbal:

This tea was yummy!  It was earthy, grounded and full body with a hint of apricot and fruit flavors.  Some teas can have an overpowering apricot flavor but this was very illusive.  Although Elderberry is a tart berry, there was no bitterness just a very nice smooth taste.  Elderberry  is believed to help us tap into our inner magic – helps expel toxins and helps with colds and viruses, and apricot is believed to be one of the most healing fruits in nature.     This is a great combination of ingredients for a great tasting tea.

Ingredients: Honeybush Tea, Elderberries, Apricots, Apple Pieces, Sunflower Petals, Natural Apricot Essence, Love, Gratitude.

Reading Nook Tea Blend:

This is a black tea base and I was surprised when I tasted it because it has a creamy light fruity flavor and almost a green tea influence.  I never would have guessed it had a black tea base if I hadn’t known.   Cream is light in flavor but is stands out the most with a hint of rose and tea flavor.  I can also faintly taste the Chamomile in it.    It has a relaxing ambiance to it.

Ingredients: Rosebuds, Cream Black Tea, Passionflowers, Lavender, Chamomile

Please note*  Cream black tea is a style of black tea – there is no dairy product in it!
