REVIEW
Brewed
- When you open this tea and have no idea what it is you will soon figure it out. Very strong licorice scent. Once brewed this tea is a medium Amber shade with a bit of a surprising scent.
Scent
- First scent once brewed is surprisingly vegetal with an undertone of mint.
Flavor
- This is an absolutely sweet tea, you are going to swear it has sweetener in it however, none is listed.
Sentiments
- Sentiments: I was excited about this tea, it’s the first Licorice tea and it did not disappoint. This tea will cure a sweet tooth right away and the licorice is right there in the front. It’s a strong tea on it’s own but with the licorice and peppermint it will aid in digestive issues as well. I would not add sweetener to this tea it’s good on it’s own.
