Silk Road

Definitely one of my favourite flavoured Green Teas. It’s surprisingly sour and fresh which is just a perfect summer afternoon tea. It also works really well as an iced tea. Be sure to brew at the proper temp for Green Tea if you don’t want that bitter flavour!

The black tea used in this blend is unusually strong for a Rose tea, which is why it really is the perfect black rose tea for me. The rose flavour isn’t hugely overpowering either and with its natural sweetness reminds me of rose Turkish Delight.

I found this one a bit disappointing. The bergamot overwhelmed the taste of the tea.

This is a very full-flavoured, bright tisane. The hibiscus gives it a tang and combined with the fruits and lemongrass, it tastes almost berry-ish. I always make sure I have a container of this one around.

A favourite! Light, fruity, delicious. Can use in recipes here: http://www.silkroadtea.com/tea_recipes.htm

Delicate, light, wonderful blend.

The perfect tea for what felt like the first day of spring in Seattle. I love packing this into my portable (loose leaf friendly!) tea container and making the office smell amazing.
