Today is face your fears day! I am going to try a bunch of teas that I have been apprehensive about tasting. I decided to start with this one.
I am really not a fan of grapefruit, the real thing or things flavored like it. So obviously I was worried about this tea. The dry leaves smell like…no kidding… oregano? I have no idea why but its not an unpleasant thing for tea to smell like. The steeping tea smells like something I can’t quiet put my finger on maybe tomato. I don’t know why I am getting so many savory scents from a fruit flavored tea but oh well.
The tea tastes like a standard black tea with a hint of something. I wouldn’t guess it to be grapefruit. Again it seems more of a savory flavor. Luckily it doesn’t taste anything like grapefruit to me so I was able to enjoy the cup. Hopefully the rest of my experiences today go this well.

Several of our in-store regulars love the grapefruit with a tiny pinch of salt. Might give that a shot.
Ok, that’s a combo I would have NEVER thought of.
that sounds really interesting
