Ehhhh… I wanted to like this tea. Everything about the reviews on steepster had me convinced this was going to be like liquid banana nut bread, and I love me some banana nut bread. It just wasn’t there for me. There was hardly any banana to it. It was like a cup of straight up walnut tea with a touch of a floral note. I also noticed that there are hardly any banana pieces in my bag! The first cup I tried was too bitter but there was a discernible banana taste to it. This has since vanished. I want to give this tea a chance, but I’m just not feeling it. I’ve been reducing the steeping time to try and get rid of the bitter nuttiness but to no avail. Even at 4 minutes this tea is almost unbearable for me. I can only drink this tea lukewarm and with added honey, but this still doesn’t warrant a re-buy. I will probably just use it in lattes in the hopes that I can salvage the remaining 35g or so.
Sadly, not a fan of this tea.
