I have been on the hunt for a plain tea with medium caffeine that i can drink in the afternoon. Im a matcha girl, and thats what I drink in the morning. But as a mother of a 4 month old, I need a little more caffeine around noon time and my low-caffeine movie night and toasted walnut and nutty & spice just weren’t cutting it! So, I saw this “supreme pekoe” and had no idea what it was! (I am new to tea) but I was intrigued by the description of “graham cracker notes”. I picked up an ounce of it at David’s yesterday and just brewed a cup not even 5 minutes ago and its perfect!!! I added a little squirt of light agave to it and it tastes like a yummy “sweet tea”. The aroma is very comforting and I can see how they say “grain” or “graham cracker”. Im not tasting any graham crackerness lol but that could just because I had higher expectations because I am more of a flavored tea kinda gal…I brewed it for 6 minutes and did one perfect spoonful in a 14oz perfect mug. This tea is NOT bitter, which I love because for me I find black tea to be occasionally bitter and thats something I dislike about it. This tea is SO SMOOTH. Like, really smooth. I really enjoy that about it. Id totally recommend this tea to someone who’s looking for an enjoyable, non flavored tea that will give them a caffeine boost. I bet this would be good iced with sugar and a lemon slice in the summer time. #texassweettea
