Sweet, a bit befuddled, but all together warm and reassuring. A tea stronger than you'd expect, and endlessly comforting.

AI Bot Summary
based on most popular reviews
The LATE BLOOMER tea, inspired by beloved character Neville, garners adoration for its warm, comforting essence and perfect peachiness. Described as reminiscent of peach cobbler, its aroma entices before sipping, activating a sensory delight. While the blend's rooibos might slip through infusers, requiring possible re-straining, this minor inconvenience doesn't detract from its overall enjoyment. Its balanced sweetness paired with a bold Irish Breakfast base, hints of vanilla, and a slight chai spice, offers a uniquely satisfying experience. Whether enjoyed hot or iced, with honey, milk, or plain, LATE BLOOMER captivates with its peach-led charm and versatile, inviting profile, making every cup ranging from good to exceptional.

Oh Neville, how I love you. I knew I was in for a treat when I saw that my favorite character was a peach tea. The bag smells yummy, like a peach cobbler, and the peachiness brews true in the cup. I pretty much buried my nose in my cup and just breathed instead of drinking at first. I'm still experimenting with milk and sweetener, but so far every cup falls somewhere on the scale of good and better so I'm not too fussed. Neville is warm, comforting, perfectly peachy, and an all around delight. (Note: the rooibos is very fine and goes through my infuser. It may be worth straining it again if that bothers you.)

I love the way this tea smells, dry. Fragrant, very sweetly scented and only faintly spiced, it's very dessert-like and comfortably mild, for what I was expecting from a blend with Irish Breakfast. Very friendly peaches and cream, it's nice with or without milk. It's very reminiscent of the tin of Mad Tea Party tea I bought years ago in Disneyworld, but a bit less robustly bodied than I was expecting.

I love this tea almost as much as I love Neville himself. So, a lot. A warning though! The first time I steeped it I added too much and left it in for too long. My mistake, but really pay attention to the steeping time on this one or it'll turn our dear, sweet Neville into a bitter mess. After trial and error, I found my perfect ratio of time and tea, and I couldn't be happier with this blend. It's peachy-keen!

I just tried my first cup of it tonight, if you like peachy type teas, this one is for you. It's amazing and a very relaxing cup of tea. The flavours blend well for a nice cup of hot tea in the summer or winter. I imagine it would be great iced as well.

I liked this blend quite a bit. I'll definitely use the entire bag, and I'll enjoy each cup, but it wasn't my absolute favorite of all the blends I've tried. The peach is strong but not to the point where it tastes like crystal light. So that's good.
