Sample provided in exchange for a review. Thank you very much!

Cold-brewed: 1/2 tsp, 6oz, stirred right away. Chamomile dominates the other ingredients initially, and the infusion tastes unpleasantly bitter. After drinking around half of the cup, the mint comes through, and the bitterness disappears a little.

Hot-brewed: 1/2 tsp, 6oz, 212 temperature. Similar to the cold-brewed infusion, but much better taste. Hardly any bitterness, thanks to the chamomile being sweeter. I’m able to taste the rest of the ingredients.

Chamomile isn’t my favorite herb when it comes to it being used in herbal blends since I find it tends to overpower the other ingredients. Though I definitely prefer the hot-brewed infusion, taste-wise. Additionally, This powder was difficult to mix because the chamomile flowers were not entirely crushed to a powder (it was more like fine bits).

The next one I tried was the Chamomile! A blend of Chamomile, Passionflower, Lemongrass, St John’s Wort, and a hint of mint. Clearly this was a tea that just begged for evening drinking, and so I did just that. The aroma is a clean blend of lemongrass sweetness and chamomile’s straw and wildflower tones, with just a nice crispness of mint at the finish

At first I tried it hot and was not a huge fan, I found it was just a tiny bit bitter, though the chamomile’s natural sweetness did help with that. However cold this tea was pretty fantastic, very cooling and refreshing from the mint, the lemongrass and chamomile giving it a sweet, lemony, and straw like quality. As it says on the website, the powder does not really disperse as well as the others do, but other than getting my chasen dirty, I noticed no problems with it. So far I like what I am seeing from Chi Whole Leaf!

Be careful with the St John’s Wort as it could have interaction issues with the medicines you take.

Well I derped and totally forgot to look that one up before drinking! Luckily after checking, the only reaction is an increase in tiredness, much like taking one of my sleep meds. Sadly I did not notice an increase in sleepiness, which honestly would have been very welcome when drinking it!!

i don’t like chamomile, tastes like freaky flowers :/

TeaNecromancer

well they are flowers :P To me they taste like honey and straw…and a wildflower field. I like them, but I am not sure I would say they are my favorite flower tea.

Thank you Will at Chi Whole Leaf for this sample. I just added some to a small bottle of cold water. There were no directions for quantity in the water. Apparently I did okay in my estimate- about the size of my thumb nail. for 8 oz. because it was good.

There addition of a bit of mint really lightens up the chamomile and makes a real nice drink. I usually add some sweetener to everything but definitely not needed in this.I found it quite refreshing. I can see adding this to a water bottle frequently.

Can’t wait to try the other ones he sent.

Yikes! Really I didn’t mean cardboard!!!! I tried to enter chamomile but I must have hit the wrong word. But it is good to see that you you are actually reading the note. :D

ThainofBuckland

I saw that too, but I assumed it was a good cardboard flavor.

Chi Whole Leaf

I’m glad you liked the tea, Carol! If anyone else would like to try any of my other flavors, please feel free to email me at [email protected]
