Meh. This is good, but it tastes like they forgot the tea! The dry scent is staggeringly lovely – strong lemon and citrus and zest, I was so excited! The brewed scent is much lighter and the jasmine becomes more evident. Tastewise, as I said, it tastes like they left all the tea out of it, which was horribly disappointing. The herbal portions are nice – lemon, zest, jasmine, even a hint of grapefruit. It also has a really sweet taste. I would enjoy trying this with some actual tea in there, lol.

Flavors: Grapefruit, Jasmine, Lemon, Lemon Zest, Sweet

Preparation

185 °F / 85 °C 6 min, 0 sec 4 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

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.
