drank Moroccan Mint by Teanzo 1856

Backlog:

This is the tea from Day 7 of the advent calendar from Teanzo.

Here’s my full-length review (which includes a photo of an ornament I made out of a burned out lightbulb a few years ago): http://sororiteasisters.com/2014/12/07/24-days-of-tea-holiday-countdown-day-7-from-teanzo-1856/

I was happy to find a minty tea like this in the box – and especially happy to find that this Moroccan Mint tea is a gunpowder base. Maybe it’s because my first Moroccan Mint tea was a green gunpowder base that I think that all Moroccan Mint teas should be like that, but it would seem that “Moroccan Mint” is a name that any minty tea can use, even if it’s a straight, 100% mint tisane. shrug

Anyway, I like the balance of flavors here – the mint isn’t overdone. It doesn’t have a strong, overwhelming toothpaste-y or mouthwash-y taste to it. I like that I taste the green tea prominently and the mint is an accenting flavor and doesn’t get in the way of the complexity of the gunpowder.

This one resteeps well too.

I am obsessed with tea!

I am a co-founder of the SororiTEA Sisters:

I no longer write for the SororiTea Sisters but I am still the admin for the blog.

The reason I’m no longer writing for SororiTea Sisters is because I am now the Mad Tea Artist for 52Teas:

I’ll still be posting occasional reviews on teas here on Steepster, mostly backlogged reviews because I’m way behind on getting reviews posted. That’s why I’m keeping two accounts active at the current time – so that I can get those backlogged reviews posted.

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.

I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination, which is why I was very excited to be the Mad Tea Artist of 52Teas!
