Big thumbs down. *The blackcurrant flavour is somewhat cartoonish and the
tea flavour underneath it isn't really very vivid. *I was expecting something
like Twining's blackcurrant (sort of the average baseline), but this was most

Several years ago, I had Frontier black currant. My memory is that it
was good. I believe an Assam base with not too aggresive a mix of the
fruit. Toci
