drank Sorrento Lemon Verbena by Te Company
1205 tasting notes

Sipdown, and this probably is my biggest leaf tea for ashmanra’s monthly sipdown challenge. It’s just giant pieces of lemon verbena and huge slivers of lemon peel. This was from Te Company’s spring collection. I bought two one-oz bags and have now finished off both, which is pretty quick for me! Partly because it’s tasty but also partly because I prioritized drinking this to make room in my tea cabinet – the bags are huge.

I did really enjoy this. It’s a light, tart lemon flavor. Not particularly sweet. Sharply tart but not mouth-puckeringly so. Soothing as a hot brew and refreshing iced. Sad to see it go but happy to have a little more space in my cabinet (not that you could tell, with how over-full it is).
