My mom got me 2oz of this as a sort of going away again gift as I was just home for the weekend and I’ll be at university for the next two months ):
the tea itself has an incredible aroma; I think if I could get that smell in a candle I would make a fortune. It seems to need to be brewed pretty strongly and does get bitter when going over a couple minutes, which, as I believe others before me have noted, contrasts the fruitiness one would want to get out of the apple, grape, strawberry and papaya in this tea. I think they might have been able to get more success with an herbal. Whites are meant to be light but strawberry, for me, doesn’t tend to lend itself to lightness. There were a number of times where I brewed it strong enough to yield a nice, sweet strawberry, and it was definitely delicious. But at the same time, the amount of tea that I had to use for a single cup just to get that taste, and white tea at that (moderately expensive stuff) made me feel kind of bad with every sip I took. Still, really good tasting.
