A refreshing tea that smells and tastes strongly of elderflower. It brews very light (don’t overbrew or it will go bitter) and is wonderful as a summer drink. Goes well with honey, doesn’t go well with milk.

I was expecting something special from this blend, but it is a mediocre tea packed in a beautiful caddy. Good for a gift for someone who drinks mostly supermarket Earl Grey.

My favourite tea blend, this tea goes wonderful with milk and yet can also be brewed light w/out milk. It is a very refreshing and uplifting blend, fantastic as an autumn or winter pick me up.

Bio

An Israeli computer programmer with a passion for tea (mostly bought in yearly shopping sprees in the UK), particularly black, oolong and white. I don’t generally enjoy flavoured teas or herbal infusions, but if a tea sounds interesting and smells nice I’ll most definitely try it. I drink several cups of tea a day, usually one or two in the morning, another one after lunch and one or two in the evening. My favourite tea so far is Lao Cong Zi Ya from Norbu Tea, but I’m constantly trying new teas. Only in the past year have I branched into Pu’erh and non-roasted oolongs. Finding good tea in Israel is difficult, so I import most of my teas from yearly visits to London, or from online retailers. If you see something in my cupboard that sparks your interest and you would like to swap with me, then please message me. I’m almost always up for a swap.
