This is ultimately a rose tea from first breath of opening the bag to last sip. It’s perfumey in the sense that it smells so strongly rose-pink and a little peppery, but it’s not a tea that only sits high and lofty. Golden chamomile works in the midground filling out the yellow-brown tone and underneath it all is the brown-green-purple tone of tulsi — herbal, herbaceous and basil/clove/licorice-like. I notice the lemon myrtle (in my opinion, the queen of lemony herbs) when I swallow as a bright, rising, citrusy-green finish. This tea is saturated colors. I don’t get any sweetness at all from the stevia leaf, hurrah.
I don’t think I’d have this often, but wow is it good <3

That used to be my go to herbal chamomile blend. The holy basil helped a lot with my stress in College.
I almost bought this, but I am glad I didn’t since it has stevia in it. I had not noticed that!
Daylon, glad you found something that worked for stress relief!
ashmanra, I detest stevia but didn’t taste it at all. I’ve been thinking about buying a box, but if there’s a batch difference and the stevia is strong, then that’ll be a sad waste. Next time I’m at my aunt’s, I’ll grab a few from the same box I got mine and send them your way.
