Popular Tasting Notes

This tea is a keeper. I love the blend of peppermint and spearmint with chamomile. There isn’t much of an aroma but it has a nice minty flavor that stays with you after each sip. The mint isn’t as robust as Stash’s Moroccan Mint but it’s very close. When I called Stash for a recommendation for a caffeine-free option to replace the Moroccan Mint, this is was what was suggested (and they sent me a free sample). This tea is very soothing and quite enjoyable.

This tea is much sweeter and less dusty than the box labeled “Aged Yunnan Puer Cake Tea” by Foojoy. Very mellow, no hint of astringency. Lacks some of the rich character found in more expensive Puer teas, but a great value!

Day 8 of my Advent Calendar

Delicious as always, took this one down pretty fast…

see previous notes…

Works pretty well as a palate cleanser. It is a very strong mint though so watch your steep time.

My enjoyment of this tea started from the moment its aroma hit my nose. It has a somewhat earthy quality to it that you think will lead to a heavy flavor. However, the earthiness plays well and leads to the complexity of this tea. I was not expecting light and fruity flavors, and I am still discovering new flavors with each glass. Quickly becoming one of my favorites.

I enjoyed this tea…sweet and subtle. But, like so many of the teas offer by Steepster, it is not available. That’s the one downside…you find a tea you like but you can’t buy it. Happens too often.

Made this at work today, with our non-boiling water from the cooler/heater/whatever-it’s-called. It’s not quite as good this way. Not as flavorful. But still enjoyable. :)

Perhaps I should invest in an electric kettle…

I have tried many Earl Greys, and this is one that should not be steeped for a full five minutes as recommended. The aroma is good, and the liquor is too. I am definitely buying more.
