Thank you to Cameron for this sample!
I don’t know what osmanthus tastes like, but this tea (which I steeped hot) is giving me vibes of iced tea (not southern sweet tea, but more black tea steeped with a hint of sweet and lemon). There’s a definite sweetness, but it’s soft. There’s hints of lemon as though I squeezed some in fresh along with subtle floral notes. There’s also an almost tropical-esque vibe. This tea is a bit difficult to describe, but complex and ultimately delightful! I would consider ordering this one.

I might describe osmanthus as just a little stronger and weightier than jasmine. (Other opinions may vary :)
To me, osmanthus tastes fruity and nectarous with sweet honey notes. So glad you enjoyed it!
