Steep Information:
Amount: 3 tsp (entire sample)
Additives: none
Water: 26 ounces filtered boiling
Tool: Cast Iron Teapot with Mesh basket strainer
Steep Time: a little over 10 minutes (7 was too weak)
Served: Hot

Tasting Notes:
Dry Leaf Smell: Pears, Woody, and something else I can’t quite place
Steeped Tea Smell: sweet, pears, and that odd something else
Flavor: funky (marigold?)
Body: Light
Aftertaste: sweet
Liquor: translucent reddish-orange

I realize I should have done less water, but that was the pot that was out and it needs at least that much to cover the tea.

This was a free sample from The Jade Teapot, which I really appreciate in my quest to find good caffeine free tea.

Sadly this tea is just too weird, there is that flavor I can not place, and the pear is a very light flavor, although the sweetness was wonderful, no additives needed!

Post-Steep Additives: none

Update: the pear and apple become more prominent and the tea becomes medium bodied when it cools.

I had this again tonight and realized that it doesn’t taste as good as last time. Probably due to last time being when I was still under the weather. It is good, but the smell is a bit too sweet for me. Just smells off to me. This is dropping only 1 point because I don’t plan on buying this, but it is a good tea.

I’m still on the search for great caffeine free options for the evenings, any suggestions?

The Raspberry Cream Cheese Danish I have from 52teas is good and caffeine free (it has a honeybush base).

Ah, yes, I remember that tea from the infamous epic tealog the other night! I think that I will be looking into 52teas as soon as I get through the rest of these samples and have room for storage.

Meh. I got this free sample from Jade Teapot today. I wanted this to taste like a nice juicy pear. It doesn’t. It does have some pear flavor, but it more like an unripe pear. There is some bitter taste in the background that I couldn’t identify.
