“Sipdown theme: April: Favorite Jelly Bean flavor I am actually not sure what my favorite jelly bean flavor is, it has been way too long since I have had one. So my tea pairing today is riffing off...” Read full tasting note
Organic Ti Kwan Yin flavoured with a complimentary melon to enhance the bright floral green of the large leaves of this curled tea. The tea is also blended with apple pieces, amaranth and safflower petals. Makes a very refreshing iced tea, and also offers multiple infusions.
Blenders Notes: In 2020, British Pop singer Harry Styles topped the charts with his summer hit Watermelon Sugar. There is some debate to the songs actual meaning, but if we take it on face value for its catchy tune and lyrics about tasty strawberries and summer feelings, I think the name fits. This tea has a natural juicy floral flavour that feels like it was meant to be paired with melon. The Oolong leaves leave no astringency and open up to fill the cup in the same hue as a watermelon rind. The tea can be steeped 2-3 times before running out of flavour. Also, did you know, August 3rd is National Watermelon day?
