Washington's Finest Tea

Blech. Should have known how this would turn out at $6 per 3 oz. Still I’m ever the optimist.

First, it doesn’t seem to be scented with jasmine at all. Instead there are jasmine buds sparsely scattered in the tea. It is, weirdly, scented with orange and lime oils, like a kind of green Earl Grey.

My first infusion tasted weak and watery, and the green leaves were stale. I could just barely detect the jasmine. My second infusion tasted like must, excessively bitter bagged tea, and rainwater.

Just yeech.
