Happy New Year everyone!
Thanks so much for sending this along, AJ Rimmer! Most Steepsterers who tried it were always raving about it, so I’m happy to try it. But now that I actually look at the tasting notes, it seems to get mixed reviews. I know AJ loves it anyway! However, it’s not my favorite. There is a flavor that seems off to me. More like a powdery fragrance than any sort of dessert. The powdery fragrance is more present than the lemon. I’m not sure what it could be in the ingredients… the second steep does seem to tame the ‘powdery’ flavor a bit. But I’ve had better lemon teas. It’s fine with me not to have something I feel I need to stock up on all the time. haha. Glad to try this, glad that it’s gone now. Sipdown!
Steep #1 // 20 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 4 minute steep
2019 Sipdowns: 92 (This plus Zen’s Rooibos Chai)
I don’t think I’m going to make my sipdown goal of 100 this year. I tried! Same goal for 2020. I’m drinking some oldies teas today – but still delicious. Maybe some fresher tea tomorrow to celebrate the new year!
