Tea mail! I have received a package from Finnish tea shop I tried for first time and I have chosen this one mostly because they are located in a city I have studied in.

Anyway, this tea hit me up with their interesting combination. Raspberry and rosemary together, with green tea base? As I said several times, uncommon flavours are my thing. So, a sample for 0.80 € into the basket. The sample is for two sessions worth in my opinion.

I decided (or rather my friend) to brew it and I am surprised how mild it is. Honestly, the most prominent taste isn’t raspberry or rosemary, but sea buckthorn. Then the raspberry and in the end there is the rosemary, adding a little of herbal note. I wonder if one teaspoon was too little (but recommended). I also did the long steeping as suggested. It was really mildly flavoured. I also get nothing from the orange. Actually, I wonder if I have some in the pouch. I understand, it’s quite heavy and not easy to put it in such a small pouch. Maybe I get some bits, looking at the pouch now.

Rating on hold.
