Tea tasting: Tea Forte's Darjeeling Quince

I'm a real fan of quince flavoring in tea, so I was excited to try Tea Forte's Darjeeling Quince tea.  It's smooth and slightly floral, with the tea remaining the predominant flavor.  The sweetness is tempered by the tartness of the quince and citrus elements.   I think the lighter floral nature of a darjeeling makes a good match with the fruit flavoring.

It's a lighter scent and flavoring that the Republic of Tea's very similar Raspberry Quince black, which is one of my absolute favorite teas.  I'll definitely order and drink this again.
