1758 tasting notes

I brewed this tonight to try to relax in a way tea, no matter how relaxing can’t relax me. This tea has worked for me before. This is the second time I have bought this tea. The herbal ingredients have a nice effect even if it does not taste so good. By itself the taste is downright unpleasant, even somewhat sour. I added a nice amount of hibiscus to the tea which dulled the flavor and improved it somewhat. I also added agave nectar to it as well. The resulting taste is spicy, sour, and sweet as well. All in all it does not taste too bad. I recommend this tea for its relaxing properties, but remember I don’t recommend it for the taste.

I steeped this once in a 14 oz mug with 4 tsp leaf and 3 tsp hibiscus and boiling water for 7 min. I am going to rate this tea at an 80% but may change it in the morning to a higher number if it helps me sleep.

I decided to raise my rating for this tea because it had the desired effect. I was out like a light last night. I think that alone in a tea is worth a 90%.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
