CharlotteZero drank Holy Basil Spa Blend by Verdant Tea

417 tasting notes

I had a sample of this from I don’t know when. I really liked it and enjoyed chewing up the little fennel seeds. Weird thing about this tea: I was suddenly brought back to Hanukkah at the end of one sip, and then again. Then birthday cake? Something about this taste brought back to me the smell of colorful melting candle wax. This is the second time I’ve gotten a wax taste from a tea. I wonder what this is…

Tea means so many things to me, it is so deep and it is revealing new meaning to me all the time.

Tea is a mindfulness practice, and a doorway through which to explore different philosophies, cultures, and historical times. Tea is hospitality and a way of communion. Tea is an art, a ritual, and a tradition. Tea is a complement to the foods I eat (preferably vegan desserts) and is something I enjoy collecting and curating.

I love to swap, or even just send people samples, so if there’s anything in my cupboard you’d like to try, just send me a message!
