Day 20 of the Tea Thoughts winter countdown box. I don’t think I’ve ever had tea in this format before. It’s a bundle of leaves tied with a string at one end. You brew it up like a teabag and don’t need a steeper or filter because the string holds the leaves together and allows you to remove them easily when it’s done steeping. I suppose flowering tea balls are a close cousin to this format because they’re typically tied together, but I’ve never seen a tea ball with a string allowing you to remove it easily. Flavor-wise, it’s a bit thin but inoffensive. On the savory vegetal side rather than sweet or grassy. I just don’t have much more to say about the flavor, unfortunately!
