April Sipdown Challenge Prompt – an herbal tea for Herbalist Day!
I received a package from beerandbeancurd today! Many thanks!
It was already past our caffeine hours so I started with this one. The smell of the teabags in their pouch was astonishing. High citrus notes but wow, is this ever the scent of the most freshly Christmas tree and greenery ever. Sharp, exquisite pine-y aroma. It is immediately grounding.
The steeped beverage tastes the way it smells, but soft and gentle. When we poured it into our tiny white cups, it looked like a slightly cloudy soft green, and then – even though the leaves were in a fine filter bag – a cloud of soft sage green dust swirls and settles like clouds in the bottom of the cup.
Impressed with this one. I am drying the bags and saving them to stash here and there to enjoy their aroma for a little while longer.
Thank you, beerandbeancurd!

I’m going to have to order some of this – sounds wonderful!
I have been sniffing the used tea bag and smiling throughout the day. It is on my desk! LOL
ashmanra, I confess I did it same for a few days. It doesn’t turned out moldy, so I was sniffing it for a few days for sure.
Yep, it is still on my desk! :D
I love these tippies. I’m so glad you enjoyed!
