A review of Lemongrass and Bamboo Leaf Tea by Bamboo Leaf Tea

Company: Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Name: Lemongrass and Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Type/Varietal: Herbal
Region: Florida
Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup / tea bags
Liquor Color: light brown
Leaf Characteristics:

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 3 minutes

I fixed this tea as my morning cup of tea whilst heading out of door for the day. It was quick and easy to make. I tend to think tea bags are easiest for fixing especially when one is hurried.

The tea was nicely hot as I took several sips and the lemongrass was ideal in that it added quite a zest to my cup and lightens my spirit for a short while.

I recommend this tea because it does have wonderful benefits with usage over time, I imagine. This tea is something that I will try to continue to use.

Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 3 minutes

I am having more of this because I really would like to experience some of the benefits that this tea is supposed to offer. I wish for better increase flexibility and aids muscle repair; essential for bone growth and density; 4% soluble fiber; promotes healthy digestion; aids in weight loss; help regulates blood sugar and contains antioxidants.

I am trying to make this a regimen and hope for the above results since weight is always an issue with me. And besides that drinking this tea is good; nothing specifically about it other than I know I am drinking something that is good for me.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes

After the first steeping I generally want to leave the tea bag in my cup and simply add the already boiled water to it and drink it.

I do not seem to be inventive with this tea at all. I hope it is tea for human and not for animal. Oh my, the mind is rotten with guilt and paranoia since I am being bullied but only perceived by me. All that I see only I see it. What bothers me is only seen by me and it is my fault for being bothered.

A review of Bamboo and Lemongrass Tea by Bamboo Leaf Tea

Company: Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Name: Bamboo and Lemongrass
Tea Type/Varietal: herbal
Region: Florida
Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup/ tea bag
Liquor Color: light brown
Leaf Characteristics: The teas are individually packed in tagless tea bags half of my order is of Bamboo and the other is of Lemongrass.

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes

I take one bamboo tea bag and one lemongrass tea bag and put them both in my cup and adding the boiled water into my cup I leave it to steep for five minutes.

Tea’s color is the lightest brown to a golden honey color when steeped for longer and the aroma is of warmed grass on a sunny hot day; like when out in the fields knee deep in plants/weeds/herbs etc. and it is warm and the aroma is sweet and pungent of plant and herbs.

I sip my tea slowly while holding this image in my mind since here in Massachusetts it is a very cold and windy day and the herbal tea is warming me up and filling me with thoughts of spring.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 190 Fahrenheit
Time: five minutes

I am able to enjoy this tea for the rest of the morning right into the middle of the afternoon when the flavor and aroma is so mild and faint that it becomes like I am simply drinking a glass of water that is mixed with something very faint.

In all, I have been able to enjoy the bamboo tea with not much literature to go with it. I am stating what it makes me feel like to drink it and it has been good.

A review of Breakfast Black Tea by Bamboo Life Tea

Tea Name: Breakfast Black
Tea Type/Varietal: black

Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup/ tea bags
Liquor Color: dark amber / brown brew
Leaf Characteristics:

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes

I finishing the last of the tea samples given to me with my order from the Bamboo Leaf Tea and today it is to be their Breakfast Black tea. I put this one tea bag in my cup and added the boiled water to it and leave it to steep for five minutes.

Tea’s aroma is of a strong flavorful cup of tea; by strong I mean that the brew’s is of medium body and brisk when I sip and sip of the tea. I think of a Ceylon mixture and possibly combine with Assam for its robust ness which is on the mild side. I drink this tea plain as I do not feel a need to adding anything to it.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 190 Fahrenheit
Time: 3 minutes

I continue to enjoy this tea with somewhat cooler water and steep for less time than first cup and it seem the tea is better, it is brisk with a smooth finish on the palette since I did not notice this smoothness when the tea was very hot. So in all this blend has a smooth texture, rolls of the tongue nicely gliding down the back of the throat.

In all, this tea has no after taste, it is not astringent; Tea has a smooth, and cleanly feel with a creamy texture finishing.

Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup/ tea bags
Liquor Color: light brown
Leaf Characteristics:

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes

I received this tea as samples given to me with my tea purchase from Bamboo Leaf Tea and I am happy to say that I get to enjoy another good cup of tea. I brew this tea very hot and the flavor of the apple with the grassiness of the other herbal leaves mixture in this tea makes for a very good cup of tea.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 190 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes
I continue to drink this tea using the same tea bag and it is lasting with each sip as good as first cup of tea. It is apple flavored with a grassy note and other herbs; I think there is ginger in this tea as well since there is a spicy / zest to it.

Thank you for the samples provided with my order, as they have all been good teas.

A review of Gingersnap Tea by Bamboo Leaf Tea

Company: Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Name: Gingersnap
Tea Type/Varietal:

Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup/ tea bags
Liquor Color: light green / brown which darkens with longer steeps
Leaf Characteristics:

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 3 minutes

I received this tea as a sample with an order that I had placed. This afternoon I reach for it as my evening, late day cup of tea. I am learning how to use the Bamboo Teas accordingly on my own since no literature was provided with this tea order.

I know I like my tea very hot. So after having boiled some freshly drawn tap water, I put the tea bag in my cup and add the water, leaving it to steep for several minutes.

The tea’s aroma is that of ginger and greens little like grass roots or such. It is a nice freshly aroma and when sipping the tea I find it to be refreshingly fresh and lively with the gingersnap adding a kick to this cup of tea.

The freshness of the tea draws you in and makes you want to have more and more of the tea.

How does it make me feel to be drinking this tea? It feels good and taste/smells lightly of ginger and of the earth…I am envisioning the bamboo shoots and their fields of abundantly grown shoots.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 190 Fahrenheit
Time: 3 minutes

I continue to have more of this tea by simply adding the boiled water to my cup with tea bag in the cup. With each steep, tea is lighter in aroma, yet I can continue to enjoy the flavorful kick of the ginger and other herbs.

I have enjoyed this tea and look forward to trying the other samples given me with my order. Thank you Bamboo Leaf Tea for making such good tea.

Lemongrass Bamboo Leaf Tea from Bamboo Leaf Tea

A review of Lemongrass Bamboo Leaf Tea by Bamboo Leaf Tea

Company: Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Name: Bamboo Leaf Tea
Tea Type/Varietal: herbal
Region: Florida
Steeping Vessel/Amt. Leaf: cup/ tea bags
Liquor Color: lightest brown/yellow
Leaf Characteristics:

  1. Steepings

1st Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes

I purchased this tea quite a while back and never got to open the package until today. It is the day for it that is all.

I began my morning with a cup of this Herbal tea (Bliss & Balance) from another company and somehow I decided to continue with drinking herbal teas today; at least for now. Anyhow, I opened the packaged and found along with my order for their Lemongrass Bamboo Tea; I was given a few other tea bags for sampling. Thank you.

I take one of the tagless tea bag of the Lemongrass Bamboo Tea and put this in my mug and pour the boiled water over the tea bag and leave it to steep for five minutes. Tea’s color is lightest yellow-brown and darkens to honey with tea bag immerse for longer.

There is nothing to dislike since it is very mild tea it seems like. It is herbal tea with lemongrass for flavoring and it is quite nice as there is no astringency or after taste. I can feel a slight tingling sensation on my palette with each sip of this tea. I like the aroma in that it is mildly of grass or herbs…slightly outdoor aroma when it is hot and the grass is heated with the air inter-mingling of this scent.

2nd Steeping:
Water temperature: 200 Fahrenheit
Time: 5 minutes and longer with other steeps; I simply leave the tea bag in my cup and adding water to the cup to see how long the grassy flavor carried through the cup.

What I am linking of this tea is its color; that smooth yellow-brown (most pale) inviting you to sip and sip of the tea since it feels and taste of liquid with a slight tingling on the tongue. This tea is warm and depicting for a clean cup of lemongrass with no bitterness or anything. I do not feel the need to adding a thing to it; and another good reason for liking the tea all the more.

I think this is an excellent tea to keep stock of if wanting to experience something similarly to an herbal beverage with plenty of antioxidants that is good for you and your overall wellness.
