Note: I selected this tea while at the grocers today, or perhaps it selected me since pricing indicated only a few left and it was half price. So I was directed to purchase this tea from Chile.
I had chai tea in the morning and continued with this theme upon returning home. This evening, with my meal it is this Rosehip tea with its hibiscus aroma and a licorice sweetly taste on my palette to help me along while savoring the noodles I am having. I realize now, I like my noodles with Oolong teas or green teas. No matter, this rosehip is quite nice.
The wording on packaging best describes this tea: Straight from our Garden to you” for exquisite flavor and aroma. True enough!
I’m pretty interested in this one. Rosehips are something I’ve always liked, but haven’t experienced much as a tea ingredient. It seems like being paired with hibiscus wouldn’t be a bad idea. They’re both tart and fruity, after all. But I’m already wishing for a black tea base.
The dry bag smells like hibiscus and cherries. Maybe a bit like a sour apple, too. As it brews, the water changes to a bright red-orange. I tend to use a white or clear mug when I’m brewing a new tea so I can see it properly. Am I the only one that does that?
The tea’s scent as I sip reminds me of apples and oranges at the same time. It’s quite sour without sweetener, and even with a little, it remains that way. It’s also very fruity, and the hibiscus is for once not smothering the other ingredients. The rosehips remind me so much of dried apple slices. Or unspiced apple chips. Honestly, though, it’s not the boldest experience… it makes me want to see how other companies are doing this combination, or something similar.
