I really like Tea Spot teas because they are simple and unpretentious but of a good quality. Their large tins provide a great value for a decent quality tea.
The Green Roasted Mint is a bit unusual. In fragrance, you have the obvious mint (which is very clean with no artificial qualities) but there’s a note I liken to aged paper which is probably from the roasting. Once brewed, the fragrance is a faintly smokey.
In flavor, the mint and the tea are well balanced. This is one tea that I will occasionally sweeten to bring out more of the mint.
I’ve made this iced as well and it’s pretty decent.
