Brenden – can you set me straight on something with these ingredients? Keep reading…

I logged this as it’s listed on your website. I can see the Yerba Mate and Safflowers and I can SEE the Citrus – it’s listed in the product description but then below that it has the list of ingredients as Oolong, Spearmint, Peppermint, and Cinnamon. I cannot see those ingredients in the dry mix nor can I taste them. Is it a typo, perhaps?

Anyhow…here is what I CAN see and taste :)

As said above I CAN see the Citrus, Yerba Mate, and Safflowers. I CAN taste the citrus and Yerba Mate. Other tasting notes and flavors I can relate to or pick up on are sweet, slightly earthy/vegetal sort of like lima beans, a bit juicy – I’ll chalk that up to a lemon-orange combo comparison, and a slight after taste addition of wheat, perhaps.

Overall…I really like this. It’s a wonderfully flavored Yerba Mate!

Ahhh yes, thanks a bunch! Total typo! Updated it just now – Yerba Maté, Safflower, Orange Peel, Organic Lemon Verbena :)

I had used Blackmint Blend as a template for the Maté’s and missed that one. :)

Usually I write my reviews while sipping my tea. Since I finished my sample of this one yesterday morning, this isn’t going to be much of a review. I just wanted to note to myself that I really enjoyed this tea and remind myself to order it again. I think it was the lemon and orange that made this so wonderful. After every sip, I sighed, “Ahhhhhh.” (I did find it funny/odd that the tea looked very green when I poured it out. I don’t know why it had that appearance.)

The dark green color comes from the yerba maté sitting for a while. There was probably little pieces on the bottom that made it through your strainer. Glad you enjoyed this!

Thanks for the info.
