Flower Power

So this is a jasmine green tea. It’s a nice jasmine green tea, but at the end of the day there’s nothing stand out about it aside from the fact the quality is solid. Good quality ingredients are very important – especially when it comes to these type of ‘cupboard staple’ profiles. So, if you were already planning on placing a Firebelly order and you needed a restock or top up of this type of profile I think you’d be getting a good one. I’m just saying that it’s not the type of tea that is the reason you place the order. Does that make sense?

Not entirely related but this tea is also a good example of how some of Firebelly’s copy in their tea descriptions make me feel very uncomfortable. It’s just like, aggressively sexual at times for these tea profiles and names that should not lend themselves to that level of overt “sexiness”. Like, here is an example from the benefits section of this tea’s product page to show what I mean:

Promotes good oral health (“good” and “oral” should always be in the same sentence).

Maybe I’m the odd one out here, but I just find that really awkward and uncomfortable to see in the description of something as basic/classic as a jasmine green tea called ‘Flower Power’. Would love to hear other people’s thoughts…
