I had made this at work a couple weeks ago…Due to the high volume of work, I wasn’t 100% in my element with tasting. I noted “licorice” on the back of the wrapper and kept drinking. Overall, I don’t remember the tasting notes, however, this tea is packed with a qi kick to the head! I was alive for an hour after drinking this one, and it helped me plenty with getting through work, and annoying my wife with Creed’s “Can You Take Me Higher” on repeat. lololololol
