257 tasting notes

I couldn’t wait to try this!! This is a lovely herbal with cute, tiny, tiny little dried white flowers mixed into a potpourri of little tiny flower middles and pieces. The little white flowers are whole and they are very tiny, very beautiful to look at!! It’s like little fairy tisane!!!!!!!! Dry, it smells like mulberries and herbs.
The liquor smells like sweet honey and biscuits. It is a golden yellow color, like chamomile, but not as bright yellow gold as chamomile gets.
Silk Road Teas assumes you know what you are doing because they have no specific brewing instructions,,,,so I brewed this one like chamomile only I took the temp down a little to 190 and steeped for 4 minutes.
This is so yummy and naturally sweet. I love this. It has the herbal, wildflower quality of chamomile but it is sweeter and tastes less harsh than chamomile. This is one to keep on hand in my cupboard along with my other herbals chamomile & dry desert lime. My chamomile will be jealous because I see myself drinking this Elderflower a whole lot more often!!!!
