Taster’s Review:

Ever had that kind of day that you just couldn’t wait to get home to make yourself a cuppa and veg? That is the sort of day I have been having all week.  I am ready to pop my feet up and watch some Big Bang Theory, Elementary or Daredevil with my boyfriend.

One of my favorite rituals that my boyfriend and I do is that each night I make up a pot of tea for us to enjoy while we watch our shows.  He isn’t picky.  I always ask him what he wants and he always tells me to pick something good. So tonight, I went the easy way out and threw 3 teabags into my Breville and hit the green tea option.  About 3 minutes later I was filling our mugs.

I like this one for a bagged tea.  The green tea flavor is first and foremost. It isn’t the best green tea I’ve ever had but it is decent.   It seems to have a more grassy green tea flavor profile versus the rich buttery flavor I usually enjoy.  The chamomile and lemongrass are lightly there and the spearmint is the last flavor I’m coming across. All in all it is good.  I can’t say that I will always need to have this on hand but when I come across it at the store I will probably grab a box or two.

All my boyfriend said about this one was that it tasted like Wrigley gum.  I’m not sure if that is a good thing or bad.

This is just an easy tea to make after a rough day where you don’t have the energy to make a proper pot.   And now its time to relax and watch Elementary.
