It’s GINGER AND PEAR in a WHITE TEA!!!! What more could you ask?! :D

Seriously, I’ll post a thorough review when I make my next pot of this tea. I will be buying this tea again soon, I am running out.

Observation 1: The tea is individually wrapped. Yay freshness!

Observation 2: My boyfriend made the tea, not I, so I have no notes on the uncooked tea. To my knowledge, 2 bags were steep for 3 minutes in a 32oz tea pot with boiling water.

Observation 3: Once steeped, the tea has a very spicy pear scent and is a clear deep tawny solution.

Observation 4: My first cup of tea was with sugar. There is a very spicy pear flavor and the tea tastes very bright. It definitely perks me up at first sip.My second cup was without sugar. Alone the tea is very spicy and the pear is very subtle. This tea is all about the ginger.

Overall: I love this tea. Its ginger and pear and a great morning pick-me-up. I will be repurchasing this tea.


boyfriend review:
“I liked it. I put too much sugar but that was fixed with more tea creepy giggle

nice ginger taste, not too sweet or fruity, but i can still taste the pear and white tea.

One of the best teas to ice that I’ve found! My boyfriend and I go through pitchers and pitchers in the summer. Very refreshing with honey!

This tea has 0 ginger flavor to me, and is instead this really strong sweet flavor that doesn’t remind me of pears at all. Anyone experienced with white tea is probably rolling their eyes at me, as this may be the white tea flavor coming through. I throw the tea bag in the water for about a minute and pull it out ASAP in a wild attempt to prevent it from being any stronger than it already is.

I microwaved some water to enjoy this tea yesterday. Maybe it was the water, maybe it was me, but I wasn’t getting any ginger flavor at all and the sweet pear smell was just overpowering. I’ve loved this tea when I’ve had it before so I’ll have to try it again another time.

This tea is best if you steep it, then put it in the fridge and drink it cold later. I add stevia liquid to it, and it’s a wonderful treat in the summer!

My rating is based on this steeping/drinking method.
