REVIEW
Brewed
- One of the prettiest brewed teas I have seen. Not all teas once brewed are pleasant to look at. A very light yellow hue and there is a nice blending of the ingredients.
Scent
- You can smell the ginger and citrus and at this point the tea is very balanced.
Flavor
- The tea runs on a bit of the acidic since and there is a slight burn to it. I know this is the ginger and the ginger is aided in it’s job by the citrus includ
Sentiments
- This tea is a wake up call, that ginger will wake you right up! The citrus is mild yet when in your mouth you will feel a bite back like when you bite into a pepper. It’s strong but it feels almost cleansing in your mouth and down your throat.
