This is a herbal tisane.

2tsp in 8 oz. water.

Appearance of dry tea: small uniform peices of light green bamboo peices,cut. Small pieces of fruit, fruit crunchy peices, and flower petals.

Smell of dry tea: smells very fruity and sweet. Notes of peaches, pineapple and apple.

Appearance of steeped leaves: minimal expansion.

Colour of liquor: dark yellow, almost brown.

Smell of liquor: minute smell, vegetal.

Taste of liquor: fruity, sweet. Some tropical flavours but hard to distinguish. Underlying soft vegetal base. There is an artificial taste noted.

I generally only ever steep once.

I would recommend as a good tea but most likely not purchase again.

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
