Cucumber Mint from Tea Forte
70

I have this in the loose tea form. Nice canisters by the way. A very good tea. Not strong, but noticeable flavors. As natural of a cucumber as one can get since a cucumber flavor can not be extracted naturally.
Slight blueberry in aftertaste is nice.
Mint is most predominant but not too over powering.
I will enjoy this during the summer months.
NOTE ADDED:
So I guess my info is way outdated! I did some research after reading that they do claim to use natural cucumber flavors. This is why I should do a refresher course in my aromatherapy training! They now CAN in fact do a cucumber extract! I am reading up more on this as back when I did my training this could not be done. Strange. UNLESS “back then” I was misinformed.

It’s odd how fast our technology grows. I remember commercials that said don’t eat eggs and now they are the perfect protein. Seems like things change radically in such a short time.

Bio

Most of my reviews will be “snippits” of full reviews that can be found at http://sororiteasisters.com/
Posted every evening at 6 EST.
I usually try to post the exact date that the full reviews will post however sometimes post dates need changed so it may not always be correct. Generally the dates are correct however.

About Me:

Most of my reviews, although not all, will be quite favorable of the tea. This is not because all tea is excellent, but more so because I generally will not waste my time on an inferior tea. If I do not care for a tea I won’t continue to drink it let alone spend time reviewing it. If you see a review by me you basically know it is a quality tea. Granted it may not suit your specific taste buds, we all like different things, but as for a tea on the whole it is a good one, from a good company.

I am a spiritual advisor by profession.
I have two “young adult” children.
Four cats and three dogs.

Some of my hobbies include gardening, essential oil therapy, natural perfumery with essential oils, and cooking.

I look for complexity overall in any tea, dimensions to the flavors.

I believe tea should evoke a feeling, thought, emotion, or attitude.

I enjoy most all oolongs, blacks, whites, and greens.

I always love to try a good yellow tea.

I favor unadulterated teas but I do have my longings for a good flavored tea now and then so I don’t rule them out by any means!

I enjoy green rooibos don not like red rooibos.
