Taster’s Review:
Tonight, I am revisiting an old friend! I have enjoyed this tea previously, and have even written a review about it previously.
This tea tastes very fresh and clean without being too overwhelmingly minty. That is to say, that I enjoy mint, but sometimes too much mint in the teacup can be a bit… well, too much for me. Fortunately, this cup has a nice balance of flavor: mint with a pleasantly sweet green tea flavor.
Because of its somewhat mellow character, this makes a very refreshingly crisp iced tea as well as a restorative hot tea. It has a slightly sweet flavor to it already, so you needn’t add any sweetener. However, I do recommend trying a thin slice of lemon with this tea. Yum!
