Okay, I hate to be the first one to review this tea – I don’t want to scare you away from it!
Maybe I’ll scare you.. towards it?
Okay let’s just do this. Dry smell: rotten fruit. Garbage. Oh my gaawwd my nostrils.
Okay so don’t stick your nose in the bag haha. It’s kind of nice and a deep fruity smell from farther away. :3
Steeped: Smells like.. figs I guess. Or garbage. whichever. haha.
Okay so I’m reminded of fig newtons. And.. christmas I guess. Figgy pudding?
Aftertaste is like I just finished chewing on a big dirty piece of corrugated cardboard. And then this delicious caramel buttery sensation comes. Right when you finish.
Well eff that. This tea is not for me. But I hope it’s for you :) Do you like figs? Maybe it just smells like figs. Fig Newtons are my first and last experience with figs – it’s all I know! I like them… anyways. Enjoy?

Ha! That’s going to be our new term for the truly bad… www.eww.com!
My favorite bit: “Aftertaste is like I just finished chewing on a big dirty piece of corrugated cardboard.” I’m still laughing…
haha I honestly couldn’t think of anything else! Also.. it probably helps that I’ve chewed my fair share of childhood cardboard. That sentence only kind of makes sense, but the point is – I’ve had cardboard in my mouth. So you can trust that statement. :D
I decided not to get this one when I got the new teas today. The smell was disgusting and I can’t imagine the taste being any better.
Ha ha ha! I think this is the best thing I have read ALL day! I’m a little scared of this one, though I do like figs, sooo…hmmm, maybe I’m the guinea pig?
WHAT?! Ewwww…

LOL! I love fig teas, but you just make this one sound so… appealing. :)
Hey you fig lovers, go for it! Seriously, I’m sure it’s just me having a first fig tea experience. I would really love to hear when you think of it!
