From Folk Apothics

The slight twisted curl of a mustache. The tip of the brimmed hat to the passerby. Our Southern Gentleman Tea Blend heralds back to a less complicated time. One where a blend of Irish Black Tea, lemon and lime basil, spearmint and dried local strawberries can be sipped on a front porch while listening to cicadas sing.

Infusion: typically one will add 1tsp of herb to 8 oz of almost boiling water. Adjust to your mug size accordingly. Allow to steep for 3-5 minutes whilst pondering life. Strain. Sip. Enjoy. Be Present in all you do.

Shae Advent Day 5

This looks like mostly mint, but apparently there’s some black tea in there too. I decided to refrigerate it and add milk, and the flavor is pretty simple, but pleasant. It tastes like mint, but I feel like I can taste the black tea a little too. It’s nice, but it doesn’t stand out too much next to other similar teas, like ones I’ve had from Cuppa Geek.

SIPDOWN 19, from Advent Calendar from Shae. Thank you!

This is an interesting blend! A mellow, maybe too weak, black base with very fresh spearmint. Strawberry just adds some sweetness. Unfortunately it isn’t much present in taste as well.

It’s not a bad tea… just I have been expecting more. Maybe there is too much spearmint, with too weak base — but stronger would maybe clash too much. I am not a blender. And I am afraid I never will be.
