First, “Thank you, Jamie” for sending me this sample along with all the others, you are so generous.

I am so HAPPY I had the chance to try this tea, it is mostly plantain in flavor and slightly coconutty. I absolutely LOVE the raw green roobios tea I think mostly because the flavor of the green versus the red is more in the background. I find that the red is far more in your face. As such that means you really don’t have to over flavor the tea to get a nice balanced flavor. I can’t wait to try the rest of the raw bush teas. This is delicious and I will be buying it. Highly recommended!

I love how this tastes. The flavors blend very well together and it is balanced very well. Yummy!

Not bad..flavorful. It has character and a few smooth notes. I found it to have many different types of flavors and they all played well together.

No matter what I do I just can’t get a rich, strong out of this one. I added more leaves and steeped longer with a slight increase in flavor but still not enough for me. I will try this again and hope for better results.

Well, normally I never put in cream and sugar in my tea but I was really curious on how it would taste so I did. It actually tastes really good. However, since I am not really used to it I will probably stick with the straight up method. Nevertheless, it holds up well and would recommend others try it that way too, just to see what I mean. Glad I did it.

This was alright. It wasn’t strong. Enough for me. I did get the minerally flavor to it but was hoping for something deeper. I think next time I will use more leaf and max out the steep time for better results.

Wow, talk about different but so cool. You have to go into this with an open mind and I think I did or at least I hope I did. It was lovely and so very unique. I tried it plain for my first time but based on the flavor I can imagine this a great addition to Genmiacha and Sencha and I truly can’t wait to try it that way.

Flavor: Sweet and lightly floral as you would imagine a cherry blossom to smell. Tiny bit salty but most of the flavor was removed during the 5mins I let the flower soak in warm water, as directed. I then put in a spoonful of water, one at a time using the water the flower was soaking which adds a bit of a salty flavor. I noticed after the second spoonful that the sweetness vanished and the flavor became completely different. I wish I could describe it but let’s just say it was very unique and no it doesn’t taste like water with salt. I am glad I tried it and recommend you give it a try knowing it is a big risk. I imagine this to be a love it or hate it experience for most.

Thank you Doulton for sending me this sample. Can’t believe it took me this long to try it. Better late then never.

First, this has such a sweet flowery orange maybe like orange blossoms at their peak. I also can taste the creaminess very well and when I drink this all I think about is my trips to Arizona with the memory of the desert sun, not a cloud in the sky, warm, and beautiful. It is a nice tea that helps me go to one of my happy places.

Not sure about this one it tastes all over the place but isn’t sure what it should taste like. Hmm..confused tea? I won’t buy this again.

This is exactly as described. It is milky and creamy. I would suggest this matcha for a newbie who is not used to how bold a matcha can be. It is very subtle. I think next time I may make this as a latte.
