Moroccan Mint

Yay! I finally got my Moroccan glasses today, so at last I can do the tea face off between four types of Moroccan Mint. The Serendipitea version and this one were provided generously by Missy. Thank you, Missy!

I noticed that this tea had the most fluffy little “bits” and I thought briefly that it might be a lower grade of gunpowder green. Then I realized that the bits were mint, not tea! This tea came in second for me in the taste off, behind Tin Roof Teas. The peppermint in the mix doesn’t appeal to me as much, but the green base is nice, not smokey, and the spearmint is refreshing! This is very minty and good! All of the teas were tasted both unsweetened and sweetened.

Thank you, Missy! :D

Ah mint, such a glorious thing. Anyone have a favorite mint tea?

In all honesty I can’t give this a proper tasting note right now. I’m still fighting this darn cold, and mint is one of the few things that hasn’t shapeshifted into some unholy flavor combination from the dark bad place.

I’ve drank this a few times before, and it’s a very solid mint green tea. I’m always very impressed with the flavorings that they use on their teas. This mint tea also holds up to resteeping better than, say, their Orange Sickle (sic).

I’ll give both of those teas a proper tasting note when I have proper taste.

This is the only other green tea in my cupboard, for the time being. I enjoy the sweetness that the spearmint brings to the bite of the peppermint. This particular blend has done really well at keeping the actual tea in the flavor profile as well. High marks for that.
