I received this a while back as sample and was waiting for a good (sleep deprived) time to drink it. That time is now.
The natural qualities of the guayusa really show through this, or at least they do on the first few sips. The flavouring is quite gentle, blending in seemlessly with the earthy and grassy qualities of the base. The lemongrass is distinctive, which I love, and leans into the flavour of sweet lemons. The citrus note builds on itself with each sip and starts to take on a somewhat creamy quality.
Now I just need to decide what guayusa blend(s) I want for this school year’s paper season. Maybe this. Maybe The Killer’s Vanilla (good song). Maybe both- one for the evening and one for the morning.

I’m waiting for the right time to make TKV too. I’m thinking of making some after my all night flight next month, to Providence, RI (and later to Brooklyn, NY).

That’s sounds like the perfect situation for guayusa!
Yeah, I leave Vic on the 5pm Clipper to Seattle for my 11:30pm flight, which arrives in Provicence at 10:30am the next morning. Seeing my bestie, so not gonna go to bed. But…I can’t really sleep well on planes. Should be interesting, to say the least.
