Well this is interesting, mostly rosemary notes. It doesn’t seem that this mixes very well, the raspberry leaves are very light and float to the top of the mixture. I shook the bag to try and distribute, but I still don’t think I scooped a good mix. It brews up dark, and I can distinguish the underlying puerh, but mostly this is smoky rosemary. Typically I like to mix my shou with peppermint, but I might try throwing a tiny tiny bit of rosemary in there too.

Flavors: Earthy, Rosemary, Smoked

Wow, that sounds really interesting. I’m looking at this vendor now; I have never heard of them previously but there’s some really intriguing blends here here.

Bio

I started drinking more tea about 10 years ago when I found that even my half -caf coffee was making me jittery and then sleepy after the caffeine wore off. While I started out with mostly Teavana, but soon expanded my tea cupboard to include lapsang souchon, pu-erh, Assam, and other strong black teas. I do enjoy oolongs, green, and other teas, as well as a nice tisane for an evening cuppa.
I’m not fond of jasmine or bergamont teas, though I’ll try anything once.
I am an avid traveler, hiker, soccer player/watcher.
I love trying new tea in new places, if you see something in my cupboard you want to try, hit me up for a swap!
