12 Tasting Notes

I was disappointed with this tea, because it tasted weak to me even after a decent steep, but the blend itself is fragrant and didn’t have any harsh or unpleasant flavors to it.

I’m planning to give it another go sometime, but I think I will be making it extra-strong and adding milk in the subcontinental fashion- on its own it didn’t hold up for me.

This is a funny tea. It’s light, and doesn’t have much definition to it, but I like it all the same… I think I like it because it’s so innocuous. It definitely doesn’t have the flavor of a green tea in any conventional sense, so I’m not sure why they label it that way. I steep it a little longer than usual, otherwise it doesn’t taste like anything at all.

I also like to drink it when I’m not feeling well and strong scents/flavors turn my stomach, so it’s a good “sick” tea.

I don’t know if Tazo still makes this. Even Starbucks used to stock it, but I haven’t seen it anywhere in a while.
