New Tasting Notes
I can see why Tazo describes this tea as having “boldness” and being “invigorating” but I’d interpret those qualities in a negative manner. The tea is harsh and has actually left a slight burning sensation in the back of my throat. Sure its “invigorating”, but invigorating in the same way as I imagine chugging mouthwash would be invigorating and bold. I usually stick to lighter teas, so maybe I’m biased, but this isn’t quite my cup of tea. Please excuse my cheesiness.
Grabbed a cup with breakfast on the way to office. Since I was still in transit it may have been over steeped but I think it should have been pretty close. Not the greatest aroma. Not the greatest flavor. A pretty average green tea with a slightly overpowering bitter flavor. Its probably something you would find in the office kitchen. If you have the opportunity to get something of a little higher quality, I’d recommend doing so.
