Hmm
Mint, rooibos, none of the chocolate
Luckily I wasn’t expecting much from you tea, because your just managing minty. I mean if i wanted mint tea with a sweet undertone to keep it from being 100% mint, I’d want you. Just not in the mood. Not really impressive.
However very drinkable.
Post-Steep Additives: none
Resteep: 7 min, weak, still tingly mint
