Good morning everyone. Today, we will start with green tea, which should be a good choice because based on the name. I was not able to find it on B&B website, so no picture of loose leaf.

I prepared a tea (two tsp), water, thermometer and a glass cup. Boiled water, spilled it into a a cup – thermometer in. Wait few minutes, water is 80 °C – tea in. And then the magic starts. Do you thought this is a green tea, so it should be green or yellow? Wrong! As I was!

I mean, the tea start turning blue, violet and those weird colours. Check a quick pic I did: https://ibb.co/6rwP6KL It is really interesting colour, when all dust settled down, it really looks like some magical potion. A mana potion maybe :D? Well, a blue pea flower is in (and not in ingredients here, because it is not in the list)

Weird, but colour should not change a taste or scents. It just looks like hypermangan.

Let´s smell. Yep, lemons. Little fruitiness, but I am not sure about raspberries. No green tea base in aroma.

Taste. Here it is said that you eat (drink) even with your eyes. Maybe something is true on this statement. I mean, it is really hard to don´t think about the visual. It is quite buttery, but not bitter. A lemon notes are there too, but I do not think they are so strong as I expected. And somewhere in background I feel a raspberry, but rather just a raspberry seeds. There are as well grassy notes of the green tea base.

In conclusion, it is very interesting tea and I think I can recomment it, maybe mostly because of the colour. I understand not everbody is fan of it but for me it makes me laugh, and tea itself is not really bad.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
