Brewed this one up according to company directions – 3min at 175F – and I’m definitely not impressed. It came out seriously bitter on the aftertaste, bad enough that I’m going to toss it down the drain and start anew.
Second steep was 2min at 175F and the results were slightly better. The aftertaste of bitterness is lessened, but I happen to find the fruit flavours less than appealing…I pick up a lot of pineapple and papaya (or possibly mango) that doesn’t merge well with the green base.
I think if I were going to make it again I would keep the steep down to 1min at 175F to hopefully kill the bitterness that happens as it cools…but my honest opinion is that it’s not worth another round of steeping to hopefully get it up to mediocre.
I took a chance on this one. Imagine Grand Central at 6pm on a Tuesday. Seriously. Hungry NYC commuters food shopping forced me to make a quick decision on trying a new tea by sight alone. I wanted a flavored white. I looked for a substantial leaf with a mix of added ingredients that sounded good. I made a good choice. Its a well balanced tea that’s good hot or cold, sweetened or not. I will definitely try more from Spices and Tease.
