Brewing a travel mug to carry with me to work.

So good! To me, this is sort of an archetype. Very smooth with no bitterness. Not the most exciting, I really prefer more strongly flavored teas, but this is just good.

So much better than the last time I tried it. I used more of the “tea” and steeped for a good long time. (It’s not like you can oversteep fruit tisanes anyway, right?)

This time it has a strong fruit flavor along with an earthiness that is very appealing. I’m changing the rating a bit to reflect the goodness of today’s tasting.

Sweetened just a bit, this tastes just like a juicy, ripe honeydew melon. I’m adding it to the shopping list. I think this would be really awesome iced for the summertime!

This seemed like a good choice this morning. I’m feeling a little blah and needed something soothing.

This tea has a very lady-like taste and the leaves are decorated with rose petals. Something (maybe the matcha?) gives it a sweetness.

I had a cup of this tea last night before bed. I liked it a lot and I’m upping the rating somewhat. It has a nice flavor, but is not too fruity. I’ll probably reorder this when it is gone, unless I can find something similar that I like better.

It’s ok. I’m using up what I have, and not buying more.

I’m already tired, and I think this tea is making me sleepy.

The leaves smell wonderful and the tea is just as good. I had it sweetened with no cream or sugar. I think this would be even better with a touch of cream.

I’m definitely going to try that tea latte recipe.

I opened the sample pack and smelled the leaves. This smells just like a cologne or perfume that I used to have. (To the point where I went through some of my perfume oils, sniffing and trying to find the scent, but with no luck.) It smells intensely of pear and honey, and after it brews up, the tea lives up to the scent. You must like honey to like this tea.

I’m guessing that the pollen pieces mentioned on the label are bee pollen? That would explain the intensely honey note.
