This is a very pleasant tea. Not a knock your socks off one, but a nice, smooth, goes down easy and smells good one.

I like the citrus smell of the dry leaf (tisane) and the smell continues once steeped. Any grassy taste the guayusa may have is masked by the lemon, but not in a harsh way. It doesn’t leave my throat dry like some lemon teas do.

I was hoping for a pick-me-up with the caffeine in the guayusa. It may have worked. I’m still awake, and I’ve felt like a zombie who just wants to go to sleep for the last few days (do zombies sleep?).

I’ve had two infusions of it so far, and would go for a third, but it’s 6pm, so I should probably switch to something with less caffeine now.
