I am really sad. I was looking forward to this tea. It sounded amazing online!!! And when I opened it the colors were beautiful, but the smell, I could not get past. I was a funky, different smell. But I decided, what the heck, why not! I overnighted this one in the fridge and the color was just absolutely breathtaking. A color I have never seen before. Unfortunately the flavor, did not agree with me. The ginger was very overwhelming for my taste. I felt like I was eating the ginger you get with your sushi. The leaves after steeped were so beautiful though! I would keep this tea just for the look… I am really sad that I did not like this tea. I will do a hot steep before I give up on it though. Maybe it will change my mind.
This is You :-D

Hi! I am a 20 year-old from Salinas, California. I attended school in Monterey and played softball for my JC. I recently moved to San Luis Obispo, CA where I got a job as a full time baker and I LOVE my job! I have always loved to bake and cook since I was young and actually started my own cupcake business in highschool to help pay for my senior year as well as pay my way through college. Once I moved my cupcake business was put on hold, but I still love what I’m doing now. I love to work with children and hope to transfer soon to a college for child development or family psychology. I would also love to go to culinary school! I have a lot of things I want to do and am determined to do them! I am a huge tea enthusiast. I love to read about tea. Learn about tea. Make tea. Drink tea. Taste new flavors.
I am also very big on reading and always enjoy a good read. If you ever have any reccomendation never be afraid send it my way!

I have some of this one but haven’t tried it yet. If an overnight cold steep was too ginger-y for you, maybe try a couple hours and see if that helps. Hope you can find a way to like it! :)
Oh bummer! I really liked this one!
