This tea brews up a deep lilac/blueberry color. The taste is amazingly blueberry without being quite tart. Their are notes of honey and soft flavorings of white tea. Mmmm…great afternoon/evening tea. Quite calming tonight.

I had to try this iced before sending the rest of it away in a swap. It really does well as an iced tea. The blueberry is very present and sweet in this. Very good!

Yummy! Fresh blueberry taste with a light, white tea base that tastes sweet and refreshing.

I like this very much!

Smells pretty.
Infuses darker than I expected.
Tastes like Blueberry and honey with a little floral hint, too.
This one is calming and fairly good.

I’m back (sort of) did you miss me!? LOL

I have a bunch of stuff to backlog but I was very tea deprived in Vegas last week. I was unable to go to the Mandarin Oriental Tea Room as I hoped…hell, I didn’t even get over to the Fashion Mall’s Teavana! Oye!

Anyhow…I’m sick…VERY sick since I have been back…I know it was because of the lady on the plane…she wasn’t covering her mouth and I was sitting RIGHT in front of her. I truly believe I was unable to fight off the germs because of lack of tea! Seriously!!!!

Here is my first cup of the day – backlogging later.

Also…I’m not tasting any new teas while I am sick because I don’t think it would be a fair review since I am “OFF”, ya know what I mean…so I will only taste the ones I have tasted before.

As I am doing with this one. It was alright. Felt nice on the throat but very light in flavor.

thank you Meghann M for sending me this tea in a swap. I can see the blueberries and the white tea. This mostly smells like blueberry. This tastes like a medium blueberry taste with a good tasting white tea. I think this tea is really good.

Thanks for the sample, Meghann! I really like this one, but I am quite partial to blueberry (about to bake some blueberry muffins, in fact, and I had a blueberry smoothie for lunch). I was careful to stick to the brew temperature and time, and what resulted was a very mild tea that I’d actually like to try iced (I’m on an iced tea kick). I’m not sure this unseats my favorite rooibos blueberry by Rishi, but it’s quite good.

I got a surprise tea package in the mail today from my friend Lizbet and this is one of the tea samples she sent. I’ve been wanting to try this one!! Thanks Lizbet!

This tea is interesting. I taste white tea, blueberry, and something else. I can’t figure out the something else part. But in the mouth, I taste the mystery flavor. In the aftertaste, I get the blueberrry and the white tea flavor. The mystery flavor when you first drink it is almost vegetal, like spinach… which I’ve never tasted in a white tea. Strange. It makes me think about it a lot while I drink it. The blueberry flavor is fantastic.

I got a sample of this as part of a Christmas present and tried it last night. I should probably say that I have a cold so my senses may be dulled!
This is one of the darker white teas that I’ve seen, both the dry leaves and the steeped tea. It smells amazing and light and extremely blueberry-y, but it didn’t really taste that way. It was a very light and mild taste, the blueberry was there, and a little of the white tea, but it was a little mehh for me. The second steep was basically the same, maybe a bit lighter still. But I’m looking forward to trying this one without having a cold!
