Black tea flavored pineapple mango - Island Morning (former name Russian Doll) - Teatower

Island Morning

7am. It's raining outside (we're in Belgium). But in your cup, it's the Caribbean. The pineapple explodes, the mango envelops, and the black tea awakens you with that energy of mornings when anything is possible.

Island Morning (formerly Poupée Russe) is a flavoured black tea that's sun-soaked and exotic, marrying the intensity of black tea with the freshness of pineapple and the sweetness of mango. It's the morning tea that transforms a grey day into a postcard.

Tasting Profile

The liquor is a bright amber red. On the nose, pineapple commands attention with immediate tropical freshness, followed by mango bringing roundness and indulgence. On the palate, the black tea delivers a malty, full-bodied structure, while the fruits dance lightly above. The finish is clean, fruity and invigorating.

When to enjoy it?

In the morning, as a replacement or complement to coffee. Its caffeine awakens you, its fruits put you in a good mood. Also excellent as an iced version in summer. 39 reviews, 4.67/5.
