I bought this tea mostly because I was thinking it is with green rooibos. But later I found out it’s green honeybush, which seems even rarer to me? Also it smelled good and good caffeine-free alternatives are important to have too.

It seems it is sourced from some wholesaler as I found a few tea rooms offering same named tea with same ingredients, but as I don’t know German wholesalers I just don’t care too much.

To the tea. Well, I used 5g / 500 ml ratio; steeped for 5 minutes as suggested and well it is indeed a delicious tea. Refreshing, with blackcurrant and elderberries present and with sweetness of strawberries. I could enjoy a little bit more of blackcurrant, but maybe it would be a bit chalky then; but green honeybush is great base as green rooibos. Smooth and fullbodied, yet without caffeine.

Edit: Song pairing: Self-made playlist of Bruce Springsteen songs I heard on the concert roughly year ago.

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

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 :)
