Not for me
"I tried to enjoy this. The ingredients are all ones that sound really interesting. But the flavour was just. . . unpleasant. It was both bland and too much all at once. It didn't blend very well to me; the elements present made an overall unhappy experience. It wasn't refreshing at all, but it wasn't heavy enough to call properly heavy; weirdly meal-like, rather bitter and savoury. The flavour was almost a bit thick? I couldn't finish the cup, and have had to relegate the rest of the pouch to my 'donation stash' in the hopes of finding it an owner who will appreciate it in the way I could not."
How. . .
"do you get a tea to remind you of the seaside? I have no idea but this is it! A tea with a savoury taste that is difficult to describe but is delicious"
Lovely
"Took two attempt to get the strength right for my taste. It's nice to have something different to drink. Looking forward to trying my other purchases."
Nice white tea
"Nice balanced white tea with a slight sweetness to it. Will buy again."
Beyond brilliant
"I am obsessed with this tea; from the second you open the pack and get a good sniff of it, to a few minutes later supping on the tastiest brew imaginable. Sorry, very hard to actually describe the taste, it's like nothing else!"
Amazing smell & taste
"My favourite tea so far! Smells devine and a lovely fresh taste. Just like a refreshing dip in the sea at Selsey. Love it"
Refreshing
"Really enjoyed Sussex Sea Swim. Very refreshing and flowery. Would by again."
Exactly as it says on the tin!
"I bought Sussex Sea Swim entirely for its name (a Christmas gift for a wild swimmer). I was so glad to have tried it with the recipient as it turned out to be a firm favourite. I had to buy myself a bag too!"
Love it!
"I absoloutley adore this blend! Gentle flavours, very refreshing and soothing"
