A sachet found in my boxes buried somewhere on the bottom. It’s from ashmanra for sure, based on the small pouch; but label I lost somewhere. Thank you! And it must be this one, because it is only one I haven’t logged yet.

It has to be this one, as it is only tea with rose from Harney I have (where are the other two I have no idea). Maybe already drank, but not removed from cupboard? Even that is possible.

I prepared it, expecting nothing but rose black tea and it seems it is that. Not sure what was wrong, but I could not notice nothing but peppery rose. There wasn’t any base noticeable which made me a bit sad.

Apparently, it is custom blend and not a bad one… just I have been expecting more from tea itself. So, unfortunately, no choco notes from Keemun aka Queen Catherine. But it was good nevertheless as I wrote already. It’s good. It just needs a bit less of rose. Maybe the base isn’t the strongest already as well.

I remember trying rose tea for first time. This was flat compared to it. But rose blacks are something I have to try more often.

Flavors: Pepper, Rose

Is it equal parts of both teas?

Martin Bednář

Honestly I have no idea :)

If it is a sachet, it must be something else. Those two teas do not come in sachets individually or mixed. They are only available loose leaf and when you see the mix reviewed it is just a custom mix of the two. I will think extra hard and try to determine what rose tea I may have sent you in a sachet, but right now I just don’t remember ever having one!

Mea culpa, I meant pouch, not sachet. Lost in translation.

ashmanra

Ah, okay! That makes sense! I usually mix half and half or two tsp Catherine to one of Rose. I don’t remember what proportions I sent!

ashmanra

I am guessing from your note that I mixed half rose and half Catherine, Rose Scented is indeed very powerfully rose.

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
