Name: Green Tea with Spearmint
Brand: Kusmi
Type: Green tea, flavored
Form: Muslin tea bags (loose leaf available)
Cost: 20 teabags sell for $12.95, 4.4 ounce loose leaf sells for $15.95, quantity discounts available
Review: Kusmi excels at flavored teas, and their version of Moroccan mint tea does not disappoint.
The dry leaf has a rich, sweet, mint scent which brews up to medium green-gold in the cup. As expected, the mint nose dominates in the nose, but the light-medium bodied cup itself is very balanced: Both mint and gunpowder tea, can be harsh, but that doesn’t happen in this tea, which possesses a lovely, and refreshing, sweet-softness.
Recommended.
Preparation Tip: Kusmi recommends keeping the water temperature very low (about 70C or 158F). I concur with this recommendation and feel that it does produce the best tasting tea. If you are concerned about the tea getting too cold too fast, warm your cup/mug before pouring the tea.
