Taster’s Review:
This is a very pleasant blend from Compass Teas. If you’re like me, you cringe at the thought of chamomile. As I’ve confessed before, I used to really dislike chamomile, but, I have developed an appreciation for it. I still don’t like the chamomile dust that is sometimes found in substandard tea bags from the local grocery store, but, in whole leaf blends like this one from Compass Teas, the whole chamomile blossoms are quite agreeable.
In fact, if I hadn’t read the ingredients and saw the chamomile blossoms in the blend when I measured it into my smart tea maker, I wouldn’t have known that this is a chamomile tisane! The flavor of the chamomile is quite soft and melds almost seamlessly with the citrus flavors of this blend.
The overall flavor of this tea is quite mild and in keeping with the “Chill Pill” kind of attitude. I previously reviewed this tea, and I am finding it every bit as enjoyable now as I once did.
This is a nice alternative to those who are looking for a soothing, relaxing tisane before bedtime but think they don’t like chamomile!
