From The Tea Table

Summer Solstice Tea is a delicious green tea blend with the taste of raspberries, lavender, and lemon, which makes for a wonderfully unique flavor. The aroma magically takes you to summertime no matter what time of year! Ingredients are green tea, natural lemon flavor, lavender blossoms, raspberry bits, and calendula petals. Use 1 teaspoon per cup and steep in steaming water for 2-3 minutes.

I like this less in August than I did in June. Funny how the psychological profile of a tea will affect the drinker: if they sell it as a summery tea, I somehow don’t like it as much after summer jumps the shark and I am sick of hot weather.

That having been said, I still like this tea. The flowery and fruity aspects of it come out better with sugar (I used a handful of rock sugar—I LOOOOVE my rock sugar), but are still not as prominent in the tea as they were in the fragrance of the unbrewed leaves. The green base is good but not great. Very drinkable—but then my cupboard is full of drinkable teas. I am still trying to find the line defining what I find merely drinkable and what qualifies to be bought again. I think this tea is right on that line.

Next time I’m going to try it iced; I suspect it will either be great or awful, not in-between. That may help me decide if I want to buy it again!

What a lovely tea! A berry/fruity floral mix sitting lightly on top a green base. The lemon is present but barely, just enough to perk it up a bit. The dry leaf has a strong, but gorgeous, raspberry smell — not medicinal like some fruit teas — but the aroma of the steeped tea has a strong lavender note. It reminds me of that je ne sais quois of the French flavored teas done by Mariage Freres, Damman Freres, Kusmi, and The O Dor. It’s a clear medium-deep golden color.

I wish I had more than a sample. And of course, now I can’t find it on The Tea Table site.
