Crème de Menthe

Honestly, I found this smelled and tasted like apples and cinnimon oatmeal. I certianly could find the cinnamon in the tea, though the mint from which it acquired its name appeared more lost, with only hints appearing. I would like this to take a more prominent place to suit the name.

I first tried this in the summer as iced tea, and it was so good that I bought a bag immediately! Creamy and minty, it makes some refreshing iced tea!

Now that it’s winter, I don’t quite make this as much, but it’s delicious hot with milk added.

nice minty tea, has a smooth feel to it.
i guess this is pu’erh. i like it

I don’t drink pu-erh normally, but this tea might change that. The minty refreshing taste of this beautiful tea is enough to convert me from my greens and whites. Really is a delicious brew and I’d recommend it.

I had version of this tea from a local tea store a while back and fell in love with the flavor. When I discovered this on Davids Tea I knew I had to buy some. It’s exactly how I remember it. I know some people don’t like some pu erh’s because they have a earthy taste, but the addition of mint and vanilla really help balance out the flavor. If you are used to black teas you really need to give this one a shot. All of that horrible astringency normally present in black teas is nowhere to be found in this pu erh. Nothing but a smooooooooooth cup of delicious tea.

I first tried this tea as a take-home cup in-store, and I soon realized I should have purchased the tea! I love it. I don’t know what it is about it that I love, but it is simply perfect. Creamy, minty, flavorful, and smooth, and with a glorious punch of energy! I went home and ordered a tin online. :) Yum yum yum!
