Backlog from… I don’t know when. It’s been bonkers around here lately, what with Thanksgiving and then my hubby getting delayed at boot camp, and traveling all over creation, and Christmas shopping… just nuts. I have been drinking my way through the Bestsellers Sampler that I got from the ill-fated Kickstarter, and this is just one of many back logged reviews you’ll see from me in the near future.
Anyway! The tea. This one smelled pleasantly rice-y, with some nutty notes and grassy notes and then, over it all, the creamy sweet marshmallow scent. Not sure if it all rolls together to create “marshmallow treat,” but I’m definitely getting marshmallow and rice smells from the dry leaf, so we’re on the right track!
The brew was… WOW, sweet. As in, I assumed it would need sugar, so I added half of my usual amount, and it was SO sweet, I almost couldn’t find the green tea at all! I won’t be making that mistake again! It definitely did not disappoint, as it tasted very much like a dessert at that point. :) And I love dessert, so, yeah. Probably this is not one I will keep stocked, but it was nice to finally see what all the fuss is about.
