My cupboard is severely lacking in non-caffeinated teas. Or perhaps I should clarify that there are few decaf teas that I love. I just spent at least ten minutes puttering around the kitchen trying to find something I wanted to drink—I kept eying oolongs, because I seem to have a taste for them right now, but after a certain time of night even that seems like too much caffeine.
Finally I lighted on this one: thank you again to MissB for sending me a sample of this! It smells great as it brews, very fresh. Again I’m surprised by how gentle the ginger is!
This is slightly different than I remember, which probably means my tastebuds are still confused, but it’s still delicious and I’m glad I decided on a cup. I think the best way to describe this is clean: nothing takes over the cup, and it all blends into something refreshing and pleasant. If I focus I can definitely taste the lemongrass, ginger, and apple separately, but if I don’t focus it’s just nice and smooth. Will have to grab some of this whenever I do a Zen Tea order!
Oh, yay! I’m always on the lookout for a good decaf. I’m glad this one suited you.
