As you could probably tell from my reviews of jasmine teas, I really enjoy perfumey, floral tea. If it smells like someone put a handful of petals in my cup and then poured hot water over it, I’m there. Rose Congou Green definitely delivers on the perfumey floraliness aspect, to the point where I can’t really detect the taste of green tea or rosehips. It’s just straight-up rose petals and that is fine by me.
