Taiwan Ginseng (Lan Gui Ren) Oolong Tea from Teavivre

ashmanra drank Taiwan Ginseng (Lan Gui Ren) Oolong Tea by Teavivre

I LOVE THIS TEA! And to be honest, I am the only one around here who does! My son said Bleh, my daughter said ick, and my guest today said it was as bad as puerh. LOL! I like puerh. And I love what the ginseng does – that sweet, floral, herbal taste and FEEL that coats the palate and throat! It feels similar to licorice root to me, which the kids also dislike but I enjoy. More ginseng tea, please! This is great!

So you’ll have the last laugh when they are all wrinkled up and you look 35 at 75!

YAY! I am so glad other people like this, too! So far only my hubby tolerates it. Everyone else opts for a different tea! I love it. I think I could drink a bucketful of it, but I won’t. I’ll be good and just drink a reasonable amount.

I think I’m with the kids on this one … ginseng tastes like you’re licking a tree root that hasn’t been cleaned :)

Bio

I am a music teacher and homeschooling mom who started drinking loose leaf tea about four years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.
