Pukka Mint Matcha Green (Green Collection)




A calm mint tea. A little bland. Nothing much of interest here flavour wise.

Pukka Ginseng Matcha Green (Green Collection)




Oooh, this works for me. Though ginseng is good for you, and I like the idea of drinking it, I often find it just a bit too earthy for my taste, but here it is used to bring a gentle warmth into the flavour matching and enhancing the ginger and the sweetness of the licorice. Sometimes Pukka really do blend ingredients very well. This is lovely.

Pukka Wonder Berry Green (Green Collection)




Wonder Berry Green is one of the selections inside the Pukka Green Collection box. It has a bewildering array of ingredients, including the ubiquitous rosehip.  I think there's probably too many as the result, for me, is a bit of a muddle. There's some sweetness from the licorice, some sort of mildly sharp raspberry fruitiness from the assorted fruits, and a consistent soft heat from the ginger, and a general earthiness from the green tea. On the whole the ingredients don't meld together, and not necessarily accompany or contrast each other. It feels a bit messy at times.
