Arby drank Blueberry Superfruit by Stash Tea

2957 tasting notes

If you are careful not to overbrew it (30 seconds to 1 minutes in 350 mL of water is the sweet spot for me) this makes a niced iced herbal. I drank this today despite the cold, rainy, windy weather and enjoyed it. I think this was a teabag from minimus.biz. I like buying an assortment of flavours while travelling because it is difficult to maintain looseleaf and steeper basket while travelling and whatnot. Anyway, I don’t like this quite as much as the blueberry acai one that tastes like blueberry pie. The hibiscus is strong and the licorice is out of place, but if you are careful on the steep time it can be a nice one-in-a-while tea.

Flavors: Blueberry, Fruity, Licorice, Tart

Bio

I am a biochem major hoping for a career in research genetics and evolutionary biology. I love science fiction and spend too much of my time reading comic books. I’m a passionate keeper of spiders, cacti, and exotic plants. I eat a vegan, plant-based diet for moral and environmental reasons (I mention this only because it is relevant to which flavoured teas I drink).

I drink mostly flavoured and low caffeine teas/tisanes, but I will try anything twice. As far as pure teas go, I gravitate towards whites, yellows, and jade oolongs. I’m always open for trades and sample sales/exchanges. Message me any time :)

My cupboard is mostly up to date. For a more comprehensive list, see my stash spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-HjWKR3um-xEnj6HC9vMvKXOAyj_bpW5u_2ixEC20-k/edit?usp=sharing
