Quest for the perfect mango tea

With my stocks of mango tea dwindling, I decided to try some of the local varieties while I'm in Australia, rather than ordering some Whittard's and braving high postage fees and the goodwill of Customs officials' interpretation of "fruit pieces". So, on the weekend, I went to T2 on Brunswick St. and bought some of their mango tea.

IMHO, the T2 mango tea is not a patch on the Whittard's; it tastes a bit too sweet and doesn't quite have the substance, for want of a better word. Mind you, I didn't think too much of the batch of Harrods tea I bought in the UK either. Next time I may try some from that place in Sassafras that cyflea told me about, or possibly one of the other independent tea shops around town.
