I had to buy a 50 g bag to try this because TeaGschwender doesn’t offer any samples and I am not happy about it now.
This tea feels watered down no matter how much leaf I use or how long I steep it; water temperature doesn’t seem to affect it either. The brew totally lacks depth. It isn’t sweet or flowery in particular, a bit smoky perhaps but again this smokiness is very muted and does not exactly contribute to the flavor.
Overall it’s drinkable but not enjoyable. I also find it goes better with food.
