Another pouch from derk. Thank you.
Steeped as suggested, 1.5 tsp, 100°C, 5-7 minutes.
I had to seach what “cota” is. In Czech it is called Marunek or Rmen. Never had it as a herbal tea.
It had somehow generic lemony taste, I was expecting some notes from juniper but nada. No pine notes too! Have I took bad teaspoons? Do I need to have more cota in, or more juniper? Should I crush the berries when brewed? So many questions, some tea left for trying. Won’t rate so far.
Flavors: Lemon, Lemongrass

Martin I sent this to derk. I got very little flavor from it, so I do not think you are doing anything wrong with your brewing.
Thank you then White Antlers. I wonder what derk will think about this tea. It is interesting blend nevertheless.
I ordered a few things from them and was disappointed with all of the tea. Of course, flavored and weird herbal tea blends are not things I enjoy, so I admit to being a fool to even order-but you know what? Live and learn. : )
I do like to try new and weird different stuff. I never heard of cota tea before, while I have heard about the plant. I was just expecting some notes from that juniper. I will try to crush the berries next time. I was just bored that it was so basical lemony taste.
I was lucky to drink some native American tea blend. I even wrote a tasting note, it could be about year ago. While it was so weird, I had no expectations and yes, it wasn’t great. It was rather awful. But I loved trying it!
It is delightful to see your sense of wonder and adventure, Martin!
