Pretty Guardians is a uniquely soothing and revitalizing blend, combining the sweetness of fruity dried peaches with a delicate hint of lavender and osmanthus flowers. Its distinctiveness makes it a perfect choice for any time of day, whether you're savoring a delightful afternoon tea or unwinding with a calming cup before bedtime.
It's surprising that this fantastic tea hasn't garnered any reviews yet—it's a true hidden gem waiting to be discovered! While I may not be a seasoned member of the Sailor Moon fandom, I can confidently say that Pretty Guardians is one of my absolute favorites from Friday Afternoon Tea. I've had the pleasure of exploring about 75% of their offerings over the last year, and this one stands out.
At the very heart of this blend are luscious, sweet peaches, beautifully paired with relaxing lavender. The peach flavor comes from real freeze-dried peaches, no artificial flavors here! It brings to mind the enchanting essence of "Provence" from Harney & Sons, but with even more delightful flavor notes thanks to the green tea, ginger, ginkgo, and osmanthus. The green tea base provides a solid foundation that lets those vibrant, fruity, and floral notes shine. And if you aren't typically into floral flavors, don't worry, the lavender is so masterfully balanced that it complements rather than competes with the other delicious notes.
This tea is truly a treasure and should be experienced by everyone at least once! The top-notch ingredients highlight Friday Afternoon Tea's commitment to quality, and in this blend, they come together beautifully to create a stellar five-star cup of tea, filled with rich and flavorful elements.
This would be my "desert island" tea. If I were stranded on a desert island, this would be the one tea I would want with me. This is one I would highly recommend.
