Tasters Review:

These leaves are HUGE and look like your basic dried leaf from a tree…a light grey-ish green in color.

This doesn’t really have a scent to it prior to infusion.  Once I started infusing this it start to smell like a cross between asparagus and celery.  The aroma was subtle.  It’s a clear yet vibrant and brilliantly bright yellow in color.

The taste is mellow.  One sip sort of reminds me of a light floral taste and the next sip is a tad reminiscent of a celery or a non-bitter dandelion stem type taste.  Regardless if I am tasting more floral than veggie or more veggie than floral it is mild, mellow, and pleasant and fairly brothy.

I love that this is a new offering from In Nature and a different sort of flower-type tea/tisane.  It’s also said to be a slimming tea!  For a slimming tea it tastes quite pleasant due to it’s mild flavor.

Pretty good, indeed!

Tasters Review:

I am usually hot and cold on Jasmine teas.  Most of them taste relatively the same….and/or are too Jasmine-E or leave that bitter floral aftertaste behind.  This one is different.

This is one of the most smooth Jasmine’s I have ever had.  It’s NOT Bitter at all…you do get a floral-feel but it’s very sweet and very smooth from start to finish and there is a sweet aftertaste.

It’s smooth, sweet, calming, nice, satisfying, and just puts a smile on my face!  I can safely say this is now one of my favorite over-all Jasmine Teas.  And surely lives up to it’s name…Jasmine Superior!  Truly Lovely!

Tasters Review:

Some teas just seem to take you to a different place!  Sweet blossoms is what this reminds me of at first sniff!  Just like in a tree and/or fruit orchard with the most PERFECT weather – both in temperature and breeze.  The clouds are fluffy and there is a glowing haze that makes it feel just like a dream.  You can help but spin around in circles (like when you were a little girl) as you stroll thru the rows and rows of blossoms and trees!

The taste is gentle, sweet, yet floral at times…this is a very PRETTY tea.  Towards the end of the sip you get a little bit of the woodsy taste but oh-so-slightly and the after taste is a tad nutty but pleasant.

This is a very laid back and go-with-the-flow type tea!  Quite enjoyable!

Tasters Review:

Recently I received a shipment of tea from the UK.  I always LOVE getting tea from different countries!  In Nature or innteas.com has a very attractive website, great customer service with wonderful email correspondence, and their packaging is unique and very reminsicent of Nature and it has their Nature-Themed Feel to it.

The first tea I tried was their Pure Black Tea also known as Ji Hong Men.  At first I thought…oh…ANOTHER “Pure Black Tea’…BUT…this is NOT your average tasting black tea! This is fantastic! The taste is so full and so bold!

I’m truly amazed! It infused pretty dark and smells almost ‘baked’. The taste is a magnified black – not a bitter black but a cakey, bakey, chewy type black!

It’s very memorable and I am already telling my friends about it!
