'- [ ] Starting off, the name alone is absolutely fabulous and one of the main reasons I bought this tea! Archaeopteryx is such an under appreciated dinosaur. Moving onto the tea itself, in the bag alone it’s beautiful, all the pretty colors and dried flowers are totally reminiscent of feathers. And the brewed tea is a beautiful sky blue!!! Perfect for the dinosaur linking “terrible lizards” with the feathered friends we know today. The smell of the tea is lovely, floral and fruity and sweet. The tea itself has a light flavor. It tastes almost bubble gum like, but not in an overly sweet or bad way. It’s not a tea I would have chosen without the incredible name, but I’m definitely glad I did, and will be happy adding this to my tea routine!
He's a big fan of white tea and hibiscus in general, and this blend features both to a lovely light floral effect. Really great blend we are eagerly awaiting for the next time it's in stock!
