Wow I’m in awe at this tea. Pine is one of my favourite scents so when I saw this at the Tea Festival I was super excited for it. In the bag, douglas fir needles intermingle with loose strands of green tea leaves. As I draw the cup to my lips, the aroma of west coast pine pairs beautifully with the delicate green tea flavour. Although pine is a new flavour to me and I’d normally frown at the idea of drinking twigs or needles from a tree, it works wonderfully in this tea. There’s an amazing woodsy flavour to it that evokes a stroll through the forest. I’m in love with this wonderfully unique experience and have made a new spot for it in my top tier of teas dropping Cardamom French Toast down to a 94.

Interesting! I imagine pine to taste quite medicinal?
Definitely! Wild and old-world medicinal.
Yeah! I can’t imagine liking that but I’m sure a person can develop a taste for it.
