Been meaning to give this a try for ages! Finally got a bit to test.
Dry smell is very green and leafy, a bit like a mild green tea to me. Wet leaves, i’m smelling something familiar but I can’t place it! I get some sugar, hmm maybe a bit like sugar and oats? It’s appealing, whatever it is :) oh and it’s a nice red color, which threw me off a bit since it’s call green rooibos lol. I steeped for 7 mins, might try a bit less next time though.
Now for taste, ooooh, how to describe this?! It’s like nothing I’ve had before! Definitely not really similar to red rooibos at all! I’m getting a very sugary aftertaste, and a fresh taste at the start! There’s something very vegetal in there as well, hmmm. I cannot classify it as any type of tea I’ve had previously..oddly, this reminds me of some bagged tea I had a longggg time ago, I think it was a black tea tho, and this definitely isn’t a black tea! Gah! It’s leaving me at a loss for words. I will just drink it up and have more later :)
Overall, it is really good, and soo different! Smooth and sugary and a hint of something..haha, terrible description, but I will definitely have some more of this in the future to try to decipher it!
