This tea is weird. Dry, the leaves smelled slightly medicinal but I couldn’t put my finger on what it was exactly. When steeping, the leaves smelled a lot like cannabis. Like, a lot. The taste is green tea with something else? Maybe the dandelion root? I’ve never had dandelion root, so I don’t know. My stomach was feeling not quite right but this tea is actually helping and I kind of like it more and more as I’m sipping. This is marketed as a hangover tea and I think it would work really well for that if you can get past the smell. It might be too much for me if I was actually hung over. I would never in a million years have picked this tea, but thanks to Virginia I now know that I like it and it’s pretty useful for calming mild stomach issues. Success!

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
