Himalayan Green Tea w/ Lemon

Jillian Thanks for a bit of this! It’s ok! It’s not too one way or the other for a green…by that I mean…not too sweet, not too grassy, not too vegetal, not to bitter, not to floral…you get the idea. It’s a nice middle of the road bagged green to fall back on if you may or if you must.

I purchased this tea through Ten Thousand Villages – an organization that supports fair trade products from groups of artisans all over the world (http://www.tenthousandvillages.com/). This tea bags came packed in this cute little embroidered green silk purse which I just love.

The flavour is surprisingly light and pleasant for a bagged green tea. It’s a combination of vegetal notes and fruity muscatel notes like you might get from a nice Darjeeling. The lemon isn’t too overpowering and it compliments the tea very nicely.
