The variety of dried flowers in the sachet are a pretty sight. I’m not sure what most of them contribute in flavor since this a predominantly sweet, apple-chamomile tasting tisane. Very fresh and full of flavor. It doesn’t taste like wood nor is it drying which is a major plus. Like with No. 39 Fez, the lemon myrtle really comes out with a second steep.

This blend doesn’t excite me much since I’m not in love with flowers (except citrus), but it’s clearly high quality and I’m happy to be drinking it. It’s definitely worth a try if you’re looking for a great chamomile-based tisane. Thanks for sharing, Mastress Alita :)

I normally can’t stand chamomile-heavy teas, but there is something about this particular one I actually like. I’m not even particularly sure what it is about it that makes the chamomile here palatable to me… something about the rooibos mellows it out a bit, maybe? Or it might just be the other flowers changing the flavor just enough. Anything else that tastes highly chamomile I just can’t stand, but many evenings I actually find myself wanting a cup of this one. It’s an odd anomoly for me.

Among my favorites are all teas Nepali, sheng puerh, Wuyi yancha, Taiwanese oolong, a variety of black (red) teas from all over, herbal tisanes. I keep a few green and white teas on hand. Shou puerh is a cold weather brew. Tiny teapots and gaiwans are my usual brewing vessels when not preparing morning cups western style and pouring into my work thermos. Friend of teabags.
