My expectations for this tea were high, based on the stature of the brand in natural food circles. It turns out that the spice is enhanced with oils of spices, resulting in a spicy flavour so overpowering and artificial that I had to force myself to drink the noxious brew. After a few trials, I disposed of the remainder of the package. I am not impressed.
Mr Steep often steeps tea until he remembers to drink it. He enjoys this laissez faire approach, but the Gongfu method has seduced him, despite the requisite mindfulness to tea-making.
Mr Steep mostly avoids flavoured teas: flavouring rarely makes something out of nothing.
Mr Steep likes tea plain, or variously with lemon, fruit juice, honey, spices, cow’s milk or soy milk, as appropriate.
Mr Steep applies this philosophy to good coffee, too.
