I like it! Definitely tart, fruity, and hibiscusy – fortunately I like those three things! I like the citrus in it – makes a sort of sweet/tart flavor. I remember having a box of this ages ago, and it was really powerful, so I made it with 10 oz of water instead of 8 and I think that worked great – it’s plenty strong. I also gave it a half teaspoon of tupelo honey to round it out. A very nice tea for when you don’t want caffeine!

I find the color very beautiful as well!!

I love to cook, bake, read, paint, knit, do needlework, and garden. I need my coffee, but I LOVE my tea. I work at an Art School, and I am currently taking classes in order to become certified to teach.

I enjoy writing tasting notes, but have decided not to numerically rate teas as of 9/14/10. For an explanation, see my looooong tasting note about Mountain Malt from the Simple Leaf.

My favorites:
Chinese black teas
A good “milk and sugar” English style black
Earl Grey (classic, and in all variations!)
Vanilla teas (classic, and in all variations!)
Jasmine, Rose, Violet and other froofy, flowery teas!
An Occasional Oolong
Flavored Rooibos
Herbal Tisanes
