Trying to catch up a little bit here… I know I’ve had this one before, but it’s been a while so I’m interested to see if my tastes have changed. This tea smells of sweet banana.. it reminds me a little bit of David’s banana oolong only without the oolong base.. but the banana softness is the same. Sipping… well, I think I should have added more than the recommended amount of “leaf” as it’s a little bit on the weak side. For me, it’s a very weak banana flavor with a mixture of other things in the background that I can’t really pull apart. There isn’t anything gross in this blend, it’s just uneventful. I also wish that there would be less of that oil slick character, but I suppose that can’t really be avoided given the ingredients.
