Thanks to Kasumi for this sample! I’ve tried some savory teas before, but usually with sage. I’ve had two blends with rosemary and one was great (Victorian EG) and one was… weird (Sakurambo). So I approached this tea with a bit of trepidation.
The taste is SO unique. The white base is light and soft and almost fruity-sweet, and lets the rosemary really shine. It’s herby, woodsy, a little nutty and has just the right hint of grassiness. It definitely tastes like rosemary, but so different from the preparation it usually gets. It’s like there was a whole sweet side to this herb I never knew about!
Now I really want to experiment with rosemary in sweets. I have a recipe for olive oil rosemary tea cakes, maybe that would be a good place to start? Certainly seems fitting, considering how tea-obsessed I am!

Do share the recipe :) I love rosemary!
Ooh, the tea cakes sound great!
That sounds delicious! My favorite thing to add rosemary to are simple candied pecans… not necessarily a baked good, but incredible!
Since I tried this tea I have been thinking on rosemary lavender madeleines..possibly using this tea, and/or a lav oolong.
