The generous JustJames sent me a sample package of Verdant…THANK YOU!!!
I was a little intimidated by the Verdant tea…I didn’t want to mess it up, so I had delayed a little bit before opening any of the packets. I thought to myself ‘stay on top of the water temp and steep time’. Forgot to stay on top of steep times, but I didn’t have any issues with the taste of this tea.
My first steeping, I got a strong floral note on my first few sips, and as the tea cooled, I found it to be deliciously nutty.
My second steeping I found the rocky/mineral taste.
Third steeping was so deliciously creamy and sweet. This was my favourite steeping of the three.
I can probably get another steeping out of the leaves, which I will attempt a little later.
This is really delicious tea.

This one is definitely forgiving of steep time. :-)
I had a feeling it might, and that’s why I chose this one first.
Excellent, glad you enjoyed it. I have some of this but haven’t tried it yet. Nice to hear others enjoying it.
so glad you like this! i have yet to be able to mess up a verdant tea, lol. i am not as diligent as you are with my steep times… i always forget. and verdant hasn’t bittenme for it yet.
I forget a lot to check my steep times and quite often have to estimate (as I did with the second steeping of this one) :)
