The description of this tea sounds wonderful and much like a tea I should like. So as I was leaving Leaf & Kettle without the teas I wanted (they were sold out) I had them throw this in. Why do I do this to myself, I hadn’t’ tried it the aroma of the dry leaf was unremarkable. All the same I’ve tried brewing it twice with boiling water the second time even overleafing it and I get..colored slightly sweetened water? Is that a hint of honey? It tastes like corn syrup but so slight. I expected more well anything, not sure why but I thought I would be more like a good Ceylon. I will try once more with cooler water but I gave up and threw out my second cup because I really need something cheering and bold this Monday morning.
