After my fail with the Peach Apple Crisp, still searching for crisp and refreshing peach I went for this one. It delivered.

Peach and jasmine must make really good friends because this is the second time I get jasmine in a peach tea. In this tea they make a good pair, they take turns on your palate. usually jasmine is the predominant taste for me when blended with anything else, anything at all. (Unless of corse it’s cloves or ginger, but why put that in a jasmine tea?)

The dry leaf is quite… leafy! there is the white tea leaves but also some other dry leaves, looks like broken up bay leaves, because of their size — of course they are not bay leaves but if you see this you’ll know what i mean. Looks like someone took tea, crushed up some dried rosebush leaves or something, and just mixed it together.

Not much smell on the dry leaf, just smells like dry grass. Beautiful clear yellow brew, peachy goodness when iced.

This tea was enjoyed courtesy of Dexter3657 . Thank you!

Bio

I started drinking loose leaf tea in the spring of 2013 (why do we feel compelled to mark the date of tea drinking somewhat like addicts counting their sobriety days?)

Never been much into tea before. Growing up in Romania, tea was something mom made for you when you were sick. As an adult, my hot beverage of choice has been coffee, both flavoured and regular. I’ve recently stumbled upon Teavana and DAVIDs TEA and quickly got addicted to the latter. Then came steepster and all else followed.

Formerly a mathematician and insurance adjuster, I gave up the corporate world and am now a professional chef. I drink wine and sometimes cheat on it with tea.

I lean heavily towards flavoured black teas. I’ve started to crave the occasional straight oolong and green but so far unflavoured black teas leave me unimpressed.

I’m learning so I drink them all. Am even introducing myself to pu’erh. So far I can do fine with the sheng cause frankly, they don’t taste like pu’erh to me. The shou is another story.

Note*: The virtual cupboard does NOT contain any of the samples I hold since most of them are one-cup quantity.

Note**: My partner, our home improvements, gadgets, mortgage, travel, wine and food have budget priority over tea.
