Organic White Peach

Thanks teapot1 for sending me this :)

I don’t have a glass teapot, or any teapot for that matter. I make each cup separately in my mug so unfortunately I can’t appreciate the full beauty of this treasure.

I let it steep for 6 minutes, despite my intuition saying not to, just because it wasn’t opening! It still barely opened at all, just the very tips started to curl. Perhaps the resteep will yield better results in that area.

First few sips, I’m really not getting much flavour at all. Perhaps it needs to fully open to get the flavour out? That would make sense. Hmm. Perhaps I’ll put the infuser back in.

I let it steep for close to ten more minutes and still essentially no flavour. How unfortunate.

Yummmy. Thanks Stacy for the sample! I really like this. Another one that suprised me. For some reason I always expect peach to have hardly any flavor. It was very light and sweet. I easily drank the whole pot.

I was really excited to try this tea. It is beautifully handcrafted and special, so I had high expectations. I steeped one of the “pods” in approx 16oz water for 15-20 minutes. I used this long steep time because my plan was to ice it. I tasted it first right out of the kettle and did not get much flavor. I then sweetened it a bit hoping that would bring out the flavor and it did not change it to me…I did end up drinking it as iced tea as planned but it did lack any depth of flavor. It is entirely possible that my method was the problem.
