2958 Tasting Notes
There isn’t anything to report for this. It tastes like honeybush + rooibos. Makes a nice iced tea, hot tea, and latte. Can’t go wrong, really. It takes cinnamon honey and agave syrup fine, but I prefer the natural sweetness of the honeybush. Natural notes of minerals and woody herbs.
Flavors: Mineral, Sweet
hmm this is oddly accurate. Lots of creamy vanilla, cakey flavours (a lot of vanilla sugar cookies), and quite a bit of citrus. I can taste mostly lemon, maybe hints of orange (like orange rind used in winter desserts). This would make a killer latte, because holy cow is this ever delicious and creamy on its own.

Preparation
Does it have that classic Celestial Seasonings thing going on, where it tastes super similar to all the other CS blends? It’s been so long since I had a CS tea that I can’t remember what it was that overwhelmed everything else for me — rose hips? Hibiscus?
It’d be nice if this tea weren’t like that, since your description makes it sound like I’d like it.
Another sipdown from earlier today.
I enjoy this blend for how flexible it is. One might not expect blueberry + mango to go well with all temperatures, but this is great brewed hot, cold, for a long time, as a latte. You can’t go wrong. And those caramel notes from the honeybush. I would definitely buy this again.Sipdown! I did really enjoy this tea. I would buy it again. It feels nice to clean out my cupboard, though. I’m aiming for four sipdowns today. I’m at three currently. There’s nothing like star trek (Voyager, for those who care) and some tea in bed on a rainy Sunday.
My tasting notes for this tea: “meh”
Really though, what us there to say about a generic sencha? Vegetal, slightly nutty. Notes of spinach and bok choy.Not bitter, but I actually had this as a latte and probably couldn’t tell either way.
Flavors: Nutty, Spinach, Vegetal
Preparation
And here I am doing nothing productive on a Sunday (again) because it is caffeine day and I’d rather devote my time to steeping teas. This seems to happen a lot.
This green is quite vegetal, Notes of hay and cut grass that has been left drying in the sun for a few days. Light hints of spinach and fruits (apricot, citrus, chamomile), lightly bitter and yet still tasty.
