Taster’s Review:
I just love (me Amoré?) the aroma of this brewed liquor. The blending of roses and mint is not a scent combination I would have really thought of before but together the two create quite a delightful fragrance.
And an even more delightful flavor!
The flavor of this tea is on the delicate side, but that is to be expected when it comes to white tea. But even though the tea notes are soft, the peppermint and rose flavors are balanced so they do not overwhelm the delicious flavor of the white tea. It tastes light and fresh with a pleasant sweet note.
The mint with the white tea gives this cup a breathtaking quality! Very crisp – like a breath of fresh mountain air! It’s really quite beautiful to experience. It’s cool and clean to taste and even a little exhilarating, while the white tea smooths these notes out just enough to make this not only an invigorating tea, but a calming one as well.
And then there is the rose! What a magnificent flavor the rose adds to this cup. It is lightly sweet and floral and adds just the right feminine touch to this tea. Overall, this is a pleasant and mellow cup. Perfect for those quiet “me” moments! Me Amoré!

Tasters Review:
This one really surprised me. I went into this thinking it was going to be all about the sage for some reason but there is a lot of other flavors going on here. It’s pretty good! I’m sure the peppermint had something to do with it. Many of you know how much I like Peppermint!
I can taste the peppermint, sage, and bergamot. The Lemon is noticeable but blends in with the bergamot mostly. There is a slight sage aftertaste a little bit more sage than peppermint. This is very different but pretty good.
