Rosehip & Hibiscus Tisane

Herbal Tea by Taylors of Harrogate

A fruity, aromatic tisane with real flowers and berries.
Rosehip and hibiscus flowers and berries are dried quickly to give a fruity, aromatic and slightly lemony infusion with a pale ruby liquor. Both have long been reputed to calm tired nerves and in addition rosehip is a rich source of vitamin C.

Naturally caffeine-free.

Had a bag of this brewed up in my little two-cup teapot.
Upon removing the bag from the packaging, the firs thing I noticed was that it smelled like raisins…
The smell upon pouring the first cup, after about three minutes of steeping, was quite floral.
Perhaps it was something I had eaten earlier, but the flavours simply did not agree with my taste buds. I like floral teas, but this is one that makes it taste as though you’re drinking liquid flowers. Not very pleasant. Might have been better with some sugar or honey (though either of those may have overwhelmed the tea itself).

Edit: I later ended up dumping the rest of the small pot after only drinking about a third of it. Some people may like this tea, but I’m afraid I’m not among them.
