Wild Leaf

Sipsby August 2018 box.

There is a LOT going on with this tea. Primarily I’m getting peppermint, with green tea flavours. The rest are a lot more subtle but give this blend an overall ‘herby’ undertone. Flavours are coming more clearly as I continue to drink it down but I’m terrible at identifying things and I’ve never even heard of gotu kola before so I have no idea what that’s supposed to taste like. However, this is not bad and I’d drink it again. If you’re fan of the ingredients, this might be to your liking.

I just had this black tea with dried fruits, coffee and rooibos. It smells a bit like Bailey’s for some reason actually. The additions are somewhat subtle in taste, but definitely make the tea less boring.

It seems like there are not many artificial flavourings and aromas, which is nice. The taste is not too sickly.

Obviously the texture cannot compare with higher quaality tea, but that just comes from the tea leaves used.

I think it would be really nice as a latte and slightly sweetened. I can’t try that out though, because I only had a 5g sample, which I used up.
