Gah! On the good side, this was definitely full of flavor. But wow, it was so so tart, and with a weird bitterness underlying it. I imagine some sweetener would have mellowed it and maybe made it more berry tasting than sour, but this was so. so. sour. And the bitterness was just weird.
Wife, mom of 2 crazy young kids (and 3 cats, if they count). Used to be a professional tree hugger, now I stay at home hobbit-like and teach the kids to love the trees. Also hobbit-like, I love reading, tea, second breakfasts, cooking and food in general, and gardens. (I can’t really say I love gardening since where I live, it’s too dratted hot for too much of the year to actually do it.) I am always on the search for a good flavored decaf black tea. Suggestions are more than welcome!
I tend to like my teas strong, so I use more than most people when I brew. Don’t be put off a tea because I say I used 4 tsp to brew 12 oz or something – that’s just me.
PS – Unlike a hobbit, my toes are not furry. I just feel the need to clarify.
