New Tasting Notes
I can’t remember having drunk this on its own, but I would often mix this in a 2:1 ratio (2 being the white) with peppermint tea. I had a lot of trouble figuring out exactly how to brew it, considering the significant difference in brewing methods for white teas and tisanes. But when I occasionally did get it just right, I called it my “happiness tea”. It’s been a looong time since I’ve made this blend for myself, though.
I’m not usually a big green tea drinker, but I like this green tea with ginseng. Normally I drink black teas with sweetener, but for this I use only a small amount or sweetener or none at all. The bags are individually wrapped which makes it easier to transport. This was a good tea for drinking on campus while grading homework.
This is my favorite Celestial Seasonings product by far, and one of the only bagged teas I keep on hand. It’s sweet and smooth and earthy, and it smells incredible. The vanilla flavor is strong and doesn’t taste artificial. It’s great before bedtime. It’s a sweet tea, but I do sweeten it lightly to bring out the vanilla even more.
I love oolongs and this is a very good one…in fact, I wish I had more than my little 10g sample. Very smooth with no bitterness, and a slight sweetness to it. I’m on my third infusion and I’m still getting a good infusion, with each getting slightly more mellow. I am now interested in trying more teas from Seven Cups.
