I love this tea. It has a slightly fruity yet bold and savory taste. If you like Painted Desert, this tea has a hint of the taste of Painted Desert in it. As with every August tea, it has a bold unique, well balanced taste. This is my new go to tea for right now. It is nice to have another one of August's teas to add to my list. Once I crave something else, I'll just move on to another August tea and come back to this one another time when I have the craving.
