I really like this one but have a couple of instinctual things against it. It is a nice basic green tea with juicy citrus notes. The scent of it, though, is very odd – a weird combo of Froot Loops (or maybe Apple Jacks?) and soap. It is both a wonderful fragrance and slightly off-putting to me, so I’m somewhat indecisive. I do enjoy the flavor quite a bit, I would say it’s more juicy orange than biting bergamot, but I’m personally fine with that. If you like the idea of Earl Grey but often not the reality, I bet you’d like this one.

Flavors: Floral, Orange, Soap

Bio

Wife, mom of 2 crazy young kids (and 3 cats, if they count). Used to be a professional tree hugger, now I stay at home hobbit-like and teach the kids to love the trees. Also hobbit-like, I love reading, tea, second breakfasts, cooking and food in general, and gardens. (I can’t really say I love gardening since where I live, it’s too dratted hot for too much of the year to actually do it.) I am always on the search for a good flavored decaf black tea. Suggestions are more than welcome!

I tend to like my teas strong, so I use more than most people when I brew. Don’t be put off a tea because I say I used 4 tsp to brew 12 oz or something – that’s just me.

PS – Unlike a hobbit, my toes are not furry. I just feel the need to clarify.
