Using up my one teabag of this tea that I was kindly given by Arby (who is a good friend of mine in person)! She scored me a multitude of single teabag Twinings tea from a hotel, so that was pretty awesome. It’s my first time trying this tea.
I really love mint teas, especially peppermint, so I was very happy to find that even though this is a peppermint and spearmint blend, the spearmint is more subtle than the peppermint and adds just a bit of sweetness, which is quite nice. It’s not a particularly special tea, but good if you like high menthol teas. I find it’s best when piping hot!
Flavors: Menthol, Peppermint, Spearmint, Sweet

I find I can barely taste the spearmint. If I didn’t now better, I would think this was plain peppermint. At least it is strong enough to take milk, brew iced, or brew hot. Really, though, most peppermint teas taste the same.

The spearmint is really subtle but I can still taste it in there, since it’s got more of that sweet menthol taste than Peppermint does. Peppermint is really strong but not the same kind of sweet as spearmint. I can definitely tell the difference between this and my Murchie’s peppermint.
