There are a lot of flavors going on in this tea and at first my tastebuds just couldn’t make sense of all them. Rooibos is definitely strong in it. Mint is there, but almost takes a back seat to the lemony flavor that reminds me of a whisky sour. There is a strong creamy aftertaste to it, which is definitely coconut. Try as I might, I don’t taste the black tea. I guess it’s overpowered by everything else.
I think I’ll try this as a cold-steep next to see how the flavors develop cold. My sister certainly loves this one! I’m glad I got an ounce to play with!
This is You :-D

I run, I sing, I drink tea. That’s the best description I have of me.
I’ve always enjoyed tea, but have just started trying out a lot more loose teas and varied brands. I’m really excited about a site like steepster so I can read about what people think about different teas.
Oh and I really hate Lipton tea. There’s something just awful about it and I can’t understand why nearly every local diner only has Lipton.
Also I’m on the search for a full-bodied, fruity blackberry tea. So if you have any suggestions feel free to throw them my way! :-)
