Ginger Sage Winter Spa Blend from Verdant Tea

MissLena12 drank Ginger Sage Winter Spa Blend by Verdant Tea

Ok, I have to admit, I just received this tea yesterday, and I’ve already had 3 cups of it haha! I had one very very early this morning while I was up fretting about my presentation, and it soothed my nerves and stomach awesomely! Also gave me quite a bit of a boost energy-wise. Now I am having a cup as well as I have a slight headache and I finally have a break from school, and this is a very good relaxing tea.

I can see myself drinking through this 2 ounce bag in no time. Sigh. Will have to place yet another order probably in December or so for this tea. I should have known though, caffeine free herbal + Verdant = everyday tea. Love it :)

Oh, and this tea doesn’t mind oversteeping. Accidentely did about 5 mins for these past 2 and it’s still been delicious! Hehe, now time to sip and read up about seasoning my Yixing :D

Hello all, I’m a university student finishing up my Electrical Engg degree this year (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it’s excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee!

I enjoy a variety of herbal, white, green, oolong and black teas. I am a bit sensitive to caffeine, but I find that in moderation I can still indulge in black teas and matcha. I’ve also dabbled with matcha and pu’erhs.

Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid all other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a wee bit, but oh well.

95+: Absolute favorite, will try to always have it in stock, and when I don’t I pine over it!
90-94: Awesome teas, will probably purchase again a few times
80-89: Very good tea, may restock at some point
70-79: happy to have tried and will gladly finish, but not restock
60-69: not horrible, but not the best, will finish if I have some though
50-59: not a favorite, probably will have a tough time finishing the bag
-50: yuck. I don’t want to have it ever again.

I am happy to say that my caffeine intolerance seems to be subsiding! This is allowing me to try a wider variety of teas :)
