Marigold petals and apricot pieces added to a splended black tea make for a nice looking assortment in the pouch this tea came in. The dry aroma is sweet and very creamy.
This tea brews a beautiful yellow-caramel liquor which effuses a subdued fruity and creamy aroma. I think I was expecting something stronger, but this was nice.
From the brew comes a light flavor profile containing the lightest of floral notes and fruit tones. You can clearly taste the apricot and the marigold petals comes through rather nicely in the finish and hold through the tail.
Brewed properly this blend has very little astringency and only the slightest hints of bitterness on the tongue.
Wow, you went through a whole pouch? I guess I’ve been hoarding mine.
I received a partial pouch via a swap – LOVED it tho :)
Yeah I’ve gotten to hoarding my favorite teas and drinking more bagged tea lately in general. Grrr there is so many from 52Teas that I want to try.
