Served: Hot
Tasting Notes:
Dry Leaf Smell: citrus, floral
Steeped Tea Smell: MINT, orange, lemon

Took much MINT, bleh. That flavor overwhelmed the rest of the cup. I am not a huge mint fan unless it’s iced – and has alcohol.
This was a gift from TeaEqualsBliss, thank you.

this tea strikes me as a tea that may be enjoyed at any other time but at breakfast – you know, like an after-dinner palate refresher or something like that
I guess it goes well with mint toothpaste? either way a bit too minty for me any time of day…although maybe iced in the summer would be refreshing
