2 Tasting Notes

Cheap and widely available in office pantries. The taste is fine, with hints of nuttiness after adding milk, but I usually use two bags steeped forever to make a decent cup that doesn’t look like lower course river water.

Refreshing and fragrant with a tinge of sweetness. The tea was a lovely pale yellow in colour. Perfect for rainy, slumpy afternoons, and after a heavy meal. I didn’t pair the tea with anything and just had it straight while working, which was perfectly fine by me.
There’s a slight astringency for subsequent steeps, though that is to be expected.
Wouldn’t recommend for mornings unless you like waking up to the scent of roses, which is quite strong in this cup.
