The teabags smell like an odd but inviting combination of mint, spice and fruitiness. The flavour is light and surpringly I’m picking up a bit of a licorice tang, or at least it atstes that way to me. The woody/vegetale flavour of the mate is only in the background, though I wouldn’t mind if it were a little bit stronger – maybe I’ll steep it a bit longer next time, though I’m hesitant to up the steeping temperature as mate can scald just like green tea.
