I’ve been eyeing this tea for a while after De and aisling of tea gave me a sample, and I decided to try it this morning.
The leaves were quite fluffy so I don’t know how many teaspoons I used, but I think it had to be at least 4. The first sip when the tea was hot was a pretty neutral flavour – I could taste the green and some of the white. But as the tea cools down, the mint really comes out to play.
This isn’t an intensely minty tea, but it does have a nice sharpness to it that is accentuated by the citrus. The citrus itself is extremely light (I think I only found one piece of orange peel in my leaves), but everything plays together like good little children. I don’t know if I’ll have time to resteep this before I head out though.
