I get the sense (although admittedly, my palate is fairly unrefined) that this tea does not actually contain much saffron.
I know that saffron is the most expensive spice in the world, and considering that I got this whole box of teabags for $3 at TJ Maxx, I really shouldn’t expect much.
It’s a yummy, sweet chamomile, anyway. Helps with the motor-mouth side effect of my caffeine addiction.
Favorite tea types: Black, pu’erh, oolong, kombucha, genmaicha, floral greens, matcha, yaupon, mate, rooibos, and honeybush.
Favorite flavor notes: Roasted, fermented, earthy, floral, nutty, bread-y, umami; dessert-inspired flavors like chocolate, vanilla, and maple.
Picky about, but not opposed to: chai, spice/ spicy, fruit flavors, and herbal tisanes.
Flat-out dislike: White tea, most unflavored green teas, hibiscus, plain peppermint.
90-100: Perfection and heaven and magic, all in one cup.
70-89: Good.
50-69: Meh.
49 and below: Blerg.
