OVERALL IMPRESSION: I like mint tea. I have tried many different mint teas from branded, to bulk, to fresh mint. Thus, when I say that this mint tea is fantastic, understand where I am coming from. The flavor is strong sweet mint with zero hint of bitterness. You must try it to understand how good this tea is. FORM: Loose leaf /ADDITIONAL UTENSILS: Strainer / SMELL RAW: Minty / STEEPING TIME: Steeped 5 minutes / COLOR STEEPED: Light golden / SMELL STEEPED: Minty / TASTE STEEPED: Amazing sweet mint flavor. The mint is so sweet it almost tastes like you added a little honey. Truly one of the best, if not the best, mint tea that I have ever tried.
