“Backlogged sipdown. I wasn’t really a fan of the “wellness-type” blends Verdant put out, of which this was one. However, some of them weren’t too bad, and this was one – it was smoky and interesting.” Read full tasting note

Thanks for this in your sale, TheLastDodo! I thought this sounded decent, as the base gets a high rating, but I’m not sure I like the base or the blend. I usually like smokey teas but this one isn’t for me. It’s not too smokey but the black tea itself is light. The other ingredients weren’t very noticeable but otherwise quite odd and didn’t seem to play well together. Hmm. Maybe I just don’t get these ingredients.
Steep #1 // 2 tsps // few minutes after boiling // 3 min steep
My late entry for National Book Lovers Day.
I’m currently reading a book about parenting and childhood trauma. It’s pretty heavy at times, so I’ve been reading it slowly for the past month or so. I was looking through my list of teas to see what might possibly fit for a book like this and came across this one. Perfect. A nurturing tea and a book about parenting.
It does feel nurturing in this moment. It’s smoky and dark, which I love.
Second Steep
10 ounces water + 212 degrees + 21 minutes
Not a bad resteep. Maybe a little light but still flavorful.
Flavors: Smoke
First tasting note? Ah, so much pressure!
I wasn’t expecting to like this tea as much as I did. It smelled like hippie perfume. Nothing says yummy like drinking a bottle of essential oils!
No, but seriously. That scent combined with the slightly sweet and smoky black tea like a charm. It wasn’t soapy or incense-y. I say give it a try if you can!
