A whole new take on Green Tea
Our 3 incredible new Green Tea flavours.
Peach and Cherry Blossom Green Tea - A really smooth, peachy taste which takes away the slightly bitter edge of green tea - for me its a drink I could drink at any time of the day - its really tasty
Twinings New Green Teas
Ok, so most people fall into one of
3 groups when it comes to Green Tea; either - I love Green Tea, it
is a staple part of my diet or I drink Green Tea because it's
healthy, so usually just in January. If you aren't one of those,
then we know what you are thinking.... Green Tea? That's for
healthy people and I just can't get my head around.
Well, we have something completely
different for all of you. If you are a regular Green Tea drinker,
we've created some juicy, zingy and exotic new flavours for you. f
you aren't a Green Tea drinker, there's never been a better time to
try it, as all our new blends are lighter, fresher and....well,
absolutely delicious.
GO TO: TANGERINE AND
VERBENA | MANGO AN LYCHEE | PEACH AND CHERRY BLOSSOM | THE
PERFECT GREEN TEA FOR ME
Expert tasting
Notes: A wonderfully balanced Chinese citrus Green Tea
that carries clearly defined zesty lemon tones that whilst
initially commanding the mouth give way to emerging tangerine notes
that pleasantly warm and gentle the palate , becoming more and more
noticeable . As the flavour develops in the mouth the refreshing
qualities of these beautifully paired fruits soon become apparent.
A defined flavour for a defined moment... following a full a meal,
or for one of those 'citrus' craving moment
The Green Tea Drinker's
Thoughts: What a taste explosion. I absolutely love a
tangerine - there's nothing like it. To get it in a drink, and a
delicious green tea drink at that...genuinely my new favourite hot
drink.
The Green Tea Drinker's
Thoughts: I love Green Tea, but have never tried Lychee.
You can taste the soft Green Tea in the background and the
juiciness of the mango is lovely....I love a fresh mango. The
lychee seems to give it a sweet flavour that is just yummy. A new
firm favourite for me.
Expert Tasting
Notes: A fantastic taste of paradise summarises this
Chinese Green Tea with Mango and Lychee
. Initially the flavour of this tea is made prominent by the
delicately sweet and fragrant lychee sensation that captivates,
followed by a quick coupling of the unmistakably tropical Mango
'sensation', completely reminiscent of summer fruits on long, hot
summer days. This green tea can carry your imagination to infinite
tropical places, yet as the flavours mellow off in your mouth, you
are reminded of flavours that you would find with late summer
harvest fruits . Not to be missed.
Expert Tasting
Notes: The ripe natural and complex flavours of summer
peach give this green tea a sophisticated yet traditional cup
without losing the trademark woody character that peach is well
known for. The floral additions of the comforting cherry blossom
flavour bring a soft sensation that mellows this green tea into a
great late morning refresher. The following soft shortbread and
sweet biscuit characters bring this green tea to life in a way that
you wouldn't think green tea could be...
The Green Tea Drinker's
Thoughts: I'm not a Green Tea drinker at all. I have
always thought it was so bitter and tart, but I am hugely surprised
with this. It smells so inviting. The aroma of sweet, ripe
peaches freshly cut with the light fragrance of cherry blossom is
delicious, it reminds me of the summer.
What's the perfect Green Tea for me?
For the Pure Green Tea
Lover:
If you simply love the punch
of an unflavoured Green Tea, then we have just the thing for you.
Our Pure Green Tea is our best
tasting; with a pure and light liquor, you can see the clarity, and
taste the quality of the leaves we have used. For something a
little lighter, perhaps you'd prefer our Light and Delicate Pure Green
Tea. If you fancy a floral hint, try the
delicate Jasmine Green Tea, where the
Green Tea is layered with the pure Jasmine petals, infusing to
create this superb blend.
For those who like their
Green Tea in the evening:
Green Tea is perfect for
anytime of the day or night, but some people like to steer clear of
caffeine before bed, so we have introduced a new star to our
range: Pure Decaffeinated Green Tea.
Now you really can enjoy it any time, completely
worry-free.
For those new to Green
Tea:
If you have tried Green Tea
in th past, and found it a little astringent, or perhaps just a
little strong, we have an absolutely devine Light and Delicate Green Tea.
Made with the same leaves, and the same care and quality, but
blended to be slightly lighter with a gentle and fresh
flavour.
For those who like
something a little different:
Our range of Green Teas now
includes 9 amazing flavoured Green Teas; our fresh and zesty
Lemon Green Tea is beautifully
refreshing. If you prefer something bursting with berry flavours,
we have a juicy Cranberry Green Tea, and a gorgeous
Pomegranate Green Tea. If you are
less of a berry fan, we have something straight from a British
Orchard; our Apple and Pear Green Tea, or for
something a little more exotic; our frsh and zingy Pineapple and Grapefruit Green Tea.
Fancy something softer, with a little fragrance? Try our Orange and Lotus Flower Green
Tea.
All of our flavoured teas have an enhanced flavour to them, on a
delicate base to ensure they are the best they've ever been, and
deliver the most delicious flavours.
And the news doesn't stop there. Our packaging is completely
new, and very different to anything we've created before, allowing
us to bring Green Tea into the limelight where it belongs. We
commissioned fashion illustrator Tobie Giddio a distinctive ink
artist to help bring these designs to life. Giddio has previously
Alexander McQueen, Tiffany & Co. and Vogue.
Using guidance from the Far East, Giddio, has created these
truly contemporary and inspirational designs depicting the
individual ingredients of the tea in the designs on the front of
the pack, to bring to life their true personality.
