Not what I was expecting!
I had a free teabag of this and decided to have it as my nightcap. Dry it smelled fresh and a bit like citrus. Brewed, it was completely different. It tastes almost like a light black tea, maybe a very light darjeeling.
Anyhow, it’s smooth, a bit nutty, and while I wouldn’t say it was “sweet,” there is a hint of it. This was my first green rooibos, and I’m impressed.
I’ve just recently discovered the world of loose tea and am really enjoying myself. I’m still in SAMPLE EVERYTHING mode, and likely always will be.
I love green teas, chai, and citrus flavors. I don’t mind hibiscus. I will drink a bitter green tea, but won’t drink bitter black tea. I’m working on figuring out which black teas work for me.
I tend to drink my tea without milk or sugar.
I’m using Steepster’s Cupboard function to actually reflect my current tea stock, otherwise I’d never be able to remember what I already have.
