This one was awful. I should probably toss it. It’s old. I didn’t like it. James didn’t like it. It’s well past its prime, but who knows if I would have liked it even when it was fresh. Green teas are a struggle for me.

Flavors: Astringent, Bitter, Jasmine

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 4 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 6 OZ / 177 ML

Sipdown…not actually…this went into my swap box which is off to my office.

Honestly this wasn’t as bad as I thought but not as bad as I thought doesn’t mean it was good. Think flowers that someone drizzled honey on. If someone likes jasmine/floral teas, this could nice for them but I am not this tea’s target audience.

hells nope. May flowers bring floral shudders to Sil. I had hopes for this one since the dry aroma wasn’t bad but this was uh…not for me. Keychange would probably like this one (as did crowkettle) but if you’re not a fan of potpourri like teas…avoid this one haha. thanks for the fun variaTEA! :)

VariaTEA

Well this is why I have yet to try this tea from May

Sil

It’s uh….floral. Haha

VariaTEA

Seems fitting in light of the name.

Crowkettle

The most delicious of florals. Just discovered more buried at the back of the bottom cupboard and thought of you :P

Sil

Sipdown.

Dropping this one a little because a) it’s a tricky, inconsistent steeper and b) I just don’t like it as much as I thought. I’m still a kind of fan of the AQ2T honey flavour here and in their Mead Genmaicha (real honey granules) but.. I don’t know. It doesn’t help that Young Hyson holds up poorly to aging.

(2017 blend)

Flavors: Grass, Honey, Jasmine, Rose, Vegetal

175 °F / 79 °C 1 min, 30 sec

oh gawd…that honey flavouring is what i can’t handle haha

Crowkettle

lol.. it does get a bit tiring and overbearing after a while, and that comments coming from a place of favouritism.
