This is the second of my three Bonne Maman teas. I mostly smell chamomile. Maybe lemony chamomile? It tastes like lemony chamomile. There’s a slight citrusy tartness…not sure if that’s just the lemongrass and lemon balm or if the cranberry is contributing. I don’t taste cranberry flavor so I don’t think there’s much in it. I’m not really sure what yarrow tastes like or if it’s adding anything here. I think I like the Serenity better than the Dream tea. I usually enjoy chamomile teas. So does my cat. But kitty doesn’t like citrus so maybe the lemony stuff in this one will keep her from shoving her fat head into my cup and knocking it over. Anyway…would maybe repurchase this one. It would depend on whether I had any other lemony chamomiles at the time.

Flavors: Chamomile, Lemongrass

I may have a mild to moderate tea addiction. Black, white, green, pu-erh, it doesn’t matter. I’m a little on the fence about oolongs but I’m starting to think I’m just particular about how they’re brewed. I haven’t tried any yellows yet but they’re on my wishlist so I can have a complete rainbow of tea. My tea problem is bad enough that I don’t necessarily even need tea in my tea, most herbals are welcome in my house too.

Favorites: jasmine, moonlight white, shou mei, chenpi/tangerine peel, violet, rose, Mengku sheng (especially autumn), anji bai cha, taiping houkui, blooming tea balls, tulsi/holy basil, chamomile

Dislikes: red rooibos, eucalyptus, allspice, flavorings of unknown origin, pumpkin, apple, banana, annoying flower petals that don’t add any flavor but are thrown in to look pretty (they tend to float and get in my way if I brew tea grandpa style)
