Popular Tasting Notes
My favorite tea of all time. Often I pull this tea out when I’m at work and need to simply close my office door and chill out for a bit. It is a very interesting taste, so if you are afraid to try new things or sensitive to licorice, don’t pick it up! It is naturally sweet, so truly it is a steep and go tea. Iced and warm works for this as well.
Preparation
I really like this tea, had it as a sample, and I’ve never like chai. This is a good warming tea after a hard day or a good tea for nausea or stomach issues. This is really good w/ raw sugar but even better w/ teavanas rock sugars. Ive always been confused as if this tea contained caffeine or not???
I don’t love this tea. Its just too sour, too punchy and too overwhelmed by the sour pink passionfruit. To get it drinkable I have to only brew for a few minutes or add iced to lemonade or water and that seems to tone it down. I also find the licorice flavor to be somewhat unpleasant.
Preparation
This tea has a nice, soft and sweet aroma. The taste is a little toasty with a sweet finish and brisk aftertaste. I doubt you would need any milk or sugar to appreciate this tea. It is not as bold in body as I usually like but it does have a complex enough character to occupy your taste buds for awhile with each sip. This is not a tea for the budget-conscious, but it is worth a taste.
Preparation
This is a well-balanced roasted oolong. Although the roasting comes through in all infusions, there are also distinct floral and honey notes when one allows the liquor to cool before drinking. Quite pleasant.
First infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz water, 90 deg., 1:45 min.
Second infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 90 deg., 2:30 min.
Third infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 90 deg., 4 min.
Fourth infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 90 deg., 10+ min.
Preparation
If someone said roasted peach to be before, I wouldn’t know what that smelled like. Smelling this though, that’s the word that comes to mind. There is a sweet scent, but not nauseating. I’m getting my hopes up as this brews because it smells great brewing- I don’t know how to describe it other then like vacation. The initial sip is a gentle sweetness. (of note I don’t like sweet and tea but I like this). There is a definite peach element but not overbearing- gentle. In the end though, I think a bit more complexity of flavor would have been good. Personal preference though since if this had been based on my personal favorite flavor Rose instead, I would be in love.
