Playing with my new variable temp kettle.
I think I needed to stir this tea up a bit more. It’s sorta lemon-gingery, but mostly I taste green tea and powdered lemon. IDK. It’s probably because I’m sick.
Temp: 179F with my kettle! Gosh, this is going to be fun… For me. :)
First tea out of my new stash from Zen. So excited to try something local again!
First off, I should note that I ordered online, and had every intention of picking it up. So, I paid for zero shipping. Yet lo and behold, Zen shipped it FOR FREE, and it arrived two days after I ordered it. Seriously?! Wowza. Thank you. I will definitely make contact to see if I need to pay them some extra for their time.
All I’ve been drinking the past 24hrs has been some form of ginger tea or another, so I knew my tastebuds were a bit off. I smelled zero ginger or anything other than green tea from the bag, as well as while it steeped. As it cools, I can smell a bit of lemongrass, however it’s very faint.
Flavor-wise, this is definitely a green tea, with only a smidgen of lemongrass flavor, while the lemon follows shortly after sipping (and again, oh-so-very-faintly). I taste zero ginger, which makes me a bit sad.
I’ll mix this with some stronger ginger tea in the future, because I do like the delicateness of the green tea.
I received the SSTTB from Bear With Me today. As I’m starting to feel sick…sore throat and congestion building, I opted that I would try this as my first tea from the box, not because it appealed to me the most, but more for the medicinal aspect of the ginger.
I found this tea to be ok. Just..ok. Not amazing or anything. But, I think it could be something better if cold steeped and drunk cold on a hot day. The flavour that I picked out most was the ginger, with the lemongrass not to far behind it.
I would not say that it is a bad tea, but I would say that it is not great either.
Kettle envy..
It makes me feel like such a geek. :D
TOTAL kettle envy!
As soon as I have one I will surely drink more than black teas. (lazy)
That’s sort of it. I do prefer the flavour of black teas, but now that it’s easier to make other kinds of tea, I’m sure I’ll make them more often.
