Apparently another oldie (BB 2016.01.10.)

And what is the tea-like in this tea? Almost nothing! Yep, brews dark copper colour. It’s even clear. But rest? It is like black tea with fruit syrup added (my grandma used to do it). Yep, it is black tea – they claim Nam Lanh wild tea; then 14 % of 1.8 gram BAG (not sachet) is licorice root. Yep sweet!

And then there is (should be) ginseng (not in taste), and black maca root (what is it?).

But yeah, it is sweet black tea. Sweet, almost syrupy. Only thing is is is not so viscous. I can finish it, because – yep, it is just sweet without any other bad notes.

Flavors: Sweet

This sounds terrible!

ashmanra: This is terrible. I was hoping that ginseng will be there. Nope. So far their plain black tea was best. All teas are way after best before date, but foil wrappings saved them well. But – I hoped, as well, that licorice will disappear, but it seems it rather became stronger (when you read other tasting notes).

Oh well! My fault trying old, way too old, teas.

I’ve only tried two Pukka teas but I didn’t like either of them.

The only Pukka tea I have is the ginger Lemon and honey. I bought it help my tummy when I’m unwell. It’s not quite horrible, but I didn’t enjoy it.

Happy to see that I am not only one who don’t like Pukka teas.

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
