This tastes kind of peppery and also sort of like soy sauce? The weird flavors mellowed somewhat in the resteep. I was more careful to steep for a shorter time the second time. I also didn’t use milk the second time, which I think helped. Now I taste orange and a bit of rooibos. It’s better this time, but I don’t love it.

Bio
I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.
Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.
Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.
I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!
My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
