Tried hot-brewing this today. Honestly the blend looked a little scary for me to prepare hot, what with all the unidentified berries and multicolored flowers, but it turned out all right. The liquor is a very pale gold. The aroma is more fruity-sweet, with less of the earthiness I noticed before. The flavor is also sweeter, with a light, honey-like quality to it. The earthy/muddy aspect is, again, much weaker. A short infusion time (3 min) compared to the cold brew may have affected which notes come out. Overall, this one is pleasant and mild as a hot tea, but more interesting cold.
Again, I really hope they list ingredients for these blends in the future. While I don’t have food allergies, I’m hesitant to share or recommend this for those who do.
