Tick Tock

This has the really dry and fuzzy characteristics of a white tea to me. Not like a usual red tea… it’s strange. Those are the two reasons I normally don’t like a white tea. There isn’t the usual rooibos flavor here. Disappointed.

Made a huge pot of this last night as I am camping with friends in the freezing cold. It was nice and warming and we were still drinking it when it got quite kate, so I think we were all glad it has no caffeine.

Yum! Had this before bed – it’s growing on me so I’m bumping up the rating!

The first thing I noticed about this tea was its gorgeous deep colour – a bit darker than any other I’ve tried. Lovely with a bit of organic honey.

Well my mind nearly exploded when I heard they make a Redbush green tea. It seemed impossible not to mention against the visible colour spectrum.

However this weird creation of a tea is really drinkable. Has a mild green tea taste, like most jasmine green teas are but without the jasmine. Yet it still has a rebush taste to it. Its odd in the way that you can tell a peice of music or a painting is by a certain artist even if it isn’t their normal style.

Lacks the bitterness that green tea acquires if you leave it too long. Which have the habit of doing.

A tea I bought for the sheer oddity of it and I’m glad I did. A real good tea.

Really nice Redbush. Probably the nicest bagged one I’ve found. Nice flavour that is quite full bodied and strong for a redbush but doesn’t go bitter. Even if you walk off and forget about it.

Nice straight, with milk, with lemon, with caramel, with apple juice. In fact their isn’t much that this tea won’t go with. Even tried it with coconut once, it was surprisingly nice.

A definite staple of my tea cupboard.

wonderful stuff…….good with a dash of soya

Another one of the teas I don’t especially like, but I’ve been dehydrated today so have had a couple of cups of this and I have to say, it’s better than I remember.

Bought this earlier today. Has a weird aftertaste I don’t remember from other rooibos teas I’ve tried. I need something without caffeine to drink at night, though, so I guess I’ll stick with it.

very nice in deed.

No milk, no sugar, ever. Use taste buds!

The more I drink Tick Tock, the more I love it.

Since being turned on to Tick Tock I realize I’ve only had better Rooibos once and that was a $4 cup of tea. Just saying.

Delicious.

Milk and a little powdered sugar and cinnamon. Mmm. Yes please.

Milk, no sugar. Nice woody flavour. Mmmmmm.
