The jasmine fragrance explodes upon opening the packet. Golden infusion starts out very smooth with some sweet notes; a brisk end. Some bitterness develops as tea cools. Subsequent infusions remain fragrant but more bitter overall. Jasmine tea is generally not one of my favorites, and this one did not change my mind.

Little aroma, no flavor, no sweetness. Meh—nothing else to say.

Juicy, fruity aroma with a clean, very fresh fruit taste. Easily stood up to 2nd and 3rd infusions. This will be great iced this summer!

Dark dry leaves smell like strawberry jam, as does the steeped tea. Full-bodied, strawberry-fruit flavored, although not as sweet as I expected. Almost a coffee-like back note that is most pleasant in the morning. I will try steeping longer and adding milk/sugar as others have done for evening dessert!

Plain without sugar, the tea is not as tart as I expected. Still peachy tasting with a jasmine aroma, but I could taste the green tea more than my previous attempt.

Reduced water temperature a bit. Smells like hot fruit compote. A little sugar helps bring out the sweetness.

Dry leaves smell like pink grapefruit. Infusion has a cookie-like scent with grapefruit sneaking in. Taste is pleasantly citrusy—lighter and brighter than other Earls.

Mocha-color grounds have no discernible aroma. Tisane is light peachy color—very pretty. Need to steep at least 7-8 minutes. Pleasant enough with sweet honey notes, but kind of meh. Cannot be re-steeped successfully.

I’ve had this tea several times, but finally have it in my cupboard. Very flavorful with berry notes (raspberry?) with a hint of citrus. A delicious afternoon cup—
