[EN] Bought this for my husband for Christmas, he loves it! We buy tea from many places online, most are over $100/lb and some over $200 for the highest end for us. This Calming De-Stress tea tastes like our expensive tea blends. We think it tastes much better steeped at 175 (since it’s green tea) for the recommended 4-6min. At the recommended temp of 205 we find it to be pretty bitter and less floral. We enjoy this both hot and iced and is definitely going to be in our summer rotation.

[EN] Made this purchase from Amazon, because no shipping fee. I will say it is an interesting, calming, and smooth blend. Be careful of how long you steep and how much sage is in your batch. The flavors complement well, but I personally mix this with a green tea. If you have tried their Mao Feng blend, I highly suggest you pair it with that. The Mao Feng is buttery enough and with a slight add of honey, it will enhance the sweetness of the green tea. I believe this would also pair will with a Dragon Well or Sencha blend.
Herbal blends are fun, but what scared me is when there are too many ingredients listed, so you have this concoction of layers that sometimes compete with one another. I really don't admire berry flavors because they can be so overpowering, however I love their strawberry oolong blend, after a good rinse.
The aroma of this blend is superb. Very relaxing to start off your morning, if you need a boost of energy with it, add more green tea.
