I wonder how different this tea is from what it had been almost 8 years ago (time stamps on all the other reviews). I don’t get fruit, but I do get florals. Similar in aspect to a black jasmine, though not exactly like it. It completely passes my astringency and bitterness tests, which is a plus.
I think my problem is that its a gray, rainy, and cold Seattle October day and florals are absolutely not what I’m in the mood for right now. Maybe come early spring when the bulbs are starting to bloom and I’m more in the mood for something perfumy.
Right now I’m craving warm, cozy, and spicy.
I am incredibly mood driven, so I’m not going to rate this right now. lets see how I feel come march.
