Delicious! This is a first time for me! I’ve never had Morrocan Mint of any kind and I rarely taste a green tea I like. Wow! This is delicious. :) The mint nose is so delightful and the gunpowder hits on the tail for a nice spicy finish. I really enjoy the whole flavor.
I did overheat the water… I looked up how to online for a Morroccan mint since I didn’t know what I was doing and it said to simmer it in a pot for 5 minutes. I let the water get too hot so it came to a boil and I reduced it to a low simmer. I can tell that added a slight bitter afternote, but the mint was so strong I could barely taste it. Next cup will be made more carefully and I will see how it affects the taste.
On this, I think I could do with the Gunpowder being stronger. I want to now taste gunpowder by itself. That is an interesting tea. :)
I drank it with a bit of sugar and it was delightful. Wanted more :D
Thank you to Carol Who for including this in her sample pack she sent me. ^^ So sweet of you! I adore it!
I rated this 79 because while I think I would buy more of it, I’m going to sample a few more Morrocan mint teas before I select a variety so I’m not sure I’ll buy it yet.
