332 Tasting Notes
Got this on the way out of town at Peet’s Coffee. The company is Mighty Leaf Tea but I’m reviewing it here since there are a lot more reviews here. It was actually listed as a green tea on their menu but is actually a white tea. I discovered this when lifting the tin down from the wall to read it. Unfortunately at Peet’s like many other coffee shops uses boiling water. So this was over steeped by the time it cooled down enough for me to drink. It was still drinkable and I would definitely like to try it again at the right temperature.
Flavors: Floral, Grass, Straw
Preparation
Thanks for sending me this to try Mastress Alita!
This is actually a local company yet I’ve only tried several of their teas before.
This is a very soothing tea. The chamomile dominates this cup whereas the last cup was more lemon heavy.(She sent me two samples of this) The lemon comes through every so often but doesn’t overpower the chamomile. It’s slightly sweet and reminds me a bit of honeysuckle. Although Good quality chamomile always reminds me of honeysuckle. Anytime I have any sort of chamomile tea in my cupboard it get’s inhaled. I’ve been drinking it since I was very young.
Flavors: Floral, Flowers, Hay, Herbs, Honey, Lemon
Preparation
This is one of the few chamomile teas I like, but I think it is because the rooibos tones it down a bit and gives it a very natural honey-like taste (I always get a more honey-like sweet flavor out of rooibos than woody notes like other folks). I like to put lemon-infused honey in this one. One of the only Steven Smithmaker teas I’ve found in a local grocery, I wish they’d carry more out here because I really like this company.
