I got this tea as a sample with my last order.
Well, I´m not very much into herbal teas and this one is blended with 8 herbal among other things with Japanese medlar. I was a bit skeptical
My parameters were:
10g, 450ml, pitcher, 95°C 100°C
30sec, 1 min, 2 min, 3 min
I got a very pleasant golden yellowish liquor of this tea with a mild body that had hints of spicy and a slightly sweet aftertaste. There were a multilayered taste, but I´m unable to name these flavor components. No bitterness at all.
And even cold was this tea very delicious.
Would I buy a full-size bag of this tea? Yes. I was positively convinced by this tea. Maybe I should give blended tea a chance :)

I seem to be the only one interested in these odder teas so far. :P This one literally looks like I scooped up a handful of debris off the forest floor and put it into a cup – it’s large dried leaves, twigs, and these huge shiny seeds that resemble small acorns. It mostly smells like musty autumn leaves with a touch of herbal spicy note. I did a 10 minute steep in boiling water.
Brewed, it smells somewhat spicy, maybe similar to ginger? And that autumn leaf smell is also present. I can also taste that hint of spice, and it kind of reminds me of clove? Maybe with a little ginger too. This tea is quite mild and it has a bit of a roasted flavor, which is nice. It reminds me in some ways of Whispering Pines’s Elder Grove, but without the berry flavor. The aftertaste reminds me of roasted coffee beans. There’s also something here that’s similar to licorice root, because I’m getting a slight sweet aftertaste, but it’s very mild and doesn’t bother me here. Overall, I like this one a lot, which is rather unexpected considering how odd I thought it would be. :)
Flavors: Cinnamon, Clove, Coffee, Ginger, Licorice, Roasted
