Spire Tea

This is a lovely and delicious white tea, with sugary sweetness and peachy fruitiness throughout infusions (albeit with varing levels of intensity).

First infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 70 deg., 3 min.

Second infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 70 deg., 4 min.

Third infusion – 3 g. per 6 oz. water, 70 deg., 10 min.

This is interesting.
It’s like Lemongrass, citrus, peppercorns, and cinnamon. Didn’t think I would like it but I kind of do! Ballsy combo! All of the ingredients are subtle and I like that. It keeps you guessing! Neat herbal!

This is a delight!
It’s gently roasted yet slightly floral and very pretty…juicy and thirst quenching and bright! I like this! Well done!

This is WONDERFUL!

This has the perfect amount of sweet to the perfect amount of chai spices to work as a great tag-team in this flavor combo! The two conflicting flavor combos sing PAULA ABDUL’S Opposites Attract here!!! The sweet is a nice sweet – NOT overdone and the spices lovely – also NOT overdone. This is sweet, spicy, juicy, fruity, soothing, warming, A TREAT. The notes of cinnamon are like a faint fireball jawbreaker…again NOT over the top but nicely done! I REALLY LIKE THIS mostly because of the ratio of each flavor coming together in unison.

This kind of smells like Hay.

It infuses to a gentle yet bright yellowish color. The taste is a cross between a green and an oolong with natural hay or wheat flavors and slightly floral notes too!

This is pretty good! A neat tea! I really like that it’s a Vietnamese Oolong :)

Sometimes I am afraid of hazelnuts because of the BITTER factor but because this is paired with the GREEN Honeybush base this makes it quite lovely….it’s sweet but not that sweet-cigar type like in a regular honeybush…this green honeybush is perfect for this. The sweeter-hazelnut lingers on to the aftertaste and makes this quite enjoyable. There is some sort of crunch type taste in there – too – like with the airy-crispy ricy type crunch in some snack bars…unless this is just word association, perhaps…but it’s still pretty yummy!

This is really nice! It’s a medium strength Golden Bud. It’s a bit sweet and is quite smooth. I wouldn’t say it’s bakey or cakey or crusty even like some golden buds have been and it’s not grainy. It’s one of the cleaner goldens I have tried. Pretty thirst quenching too – YUM!
