I received my Simple Loose Leaf May box today and the first tea I opened was this one. I opened it up and gave it a whif. It smells lightly sweet and citrusy. I wanted to try it first at just a 3 min steep. It’s not very strong at 3 minutes. I get a little bit of citrus flavor with underlying black tea bitterness. I might have to make more at 5 minutes after I finish this one.
I’m a researcher in St. Louis and tea gets me through the day at work. I love trying any kind of tea and have far too much tea to drink.
I’d love to swap! Just message me. :)
I’m really interested in trying more teas from Butiki, Whispering Pines & Lupicia. But really I’m open to most teas.
