Chamomile Medley

I’m not a big fan of Chamomile by itself and I am picky about Chamomile when it’s with other things…BUT…on the other hand I LOVE MINTY things so I am hoping the mint cancels or at least helps out the Chamomile in this case.

It smells like a gentle mint mixed with Chamomile – pleasant enough, I suppose.

I will say that the Chamomile is the flavor in front but then the lemon balm is quite strong too…I would say it’s more balmy than lemony…somewhat like chapstick if you were to lick your lips…waxy, maybe? But then there is a little minty-goodness that gives it a little light at the end of the tunnel.

I wouldn’t run right out and purchase this but it’s a doable late night tea. The Lemon Balm and Mint help tone down the stereotypical Chamomile so those, like me, who aren’t really into chamomile in the evening – or any time – may find this one a little easier on the palate.

Not bad.

This tea is good with honey if you have a cold, however, I found the taste to lack flavor. I felt that I could find a similar tasting tea in the grocery store, however, I’m sure I would have seen a deduction in health benefits. Additionally, this tea did not re-steep very well and tasted as if I was drinking hot water by the time I steeped my second pot of tea. All in all, I would not buy this tea again.
