I recently had the pleasure of tasting 3 new flavours of brewed tea from East Forged. For health reasons, I follow a dairy free, gluten free diet and I do not drink alcohol so these tasty beverages were right up my ally! On receipt of the products I instantly ranked what I assumed would be my most liked brew with the fruit infusion first, the green tea second and the black tea third. After tasting however I was infact completely wrong with my preferences in reverse. Let's start with my favourite the black tea - this brew had a strong weight to it, a solid taste foundation with the lychee being the most recognised additional note. I like a strong tea and this was perfect. My second favourite was the green tea with the lime and pitaya as the most enjoyable additions. This tea was slightly grassy, a little wheaty but still very refreshing and not at all heavy. Lastly, the fruit infusion. Whilst I certainly enjoyed this brew, I felt it lacked the punchy tea flavour of the others and was a little bit flat on the flavour profile. I could mildly taste the apple and blackcurrent but I think this one would be better with a bit more berry hit. I sampled all the teas as they were, and then again mixed with mineral water. I actually peferred the carbonated versions and felt the flavour carried through without tasting diluted. I actually loved the black tea and would consider it an ideal alcohol alternative especially in the hot gold coast weather. It was a real pleasure to have the opportunity to sample these high-quality, unique and well packaged tea brews.

Interesting and refreshing
I like the black tea and Yuzu the most. It's something different and a good replacement for sweet beverages.

The freshest tea drinking experience!
Absolutely adore this tea flavour. Very balance flavour palette and absolutely suitable for any social events you can think of. Highly recommended!
P/s: Love the packaging design
There are so many reasons that I enjoy East Forged. I myself treat it as a celebratory drink that substitutes for alcohol, and when I shake the can before pouring, and pour vigorously, it really does make me feel like I’m drinking a beer. And they’re delicious. And I think it’s important to support small businesses. So, five stars from me.
