Review: With all those flowers, it’s unsurprising that, when brewed, this smells soapy. The taste was quite strong…and by ‘quite strong’, we mean we found it hard to drink because it was insanely bitter. We only brewed it for a few minutes, as recommended, so that tea is intense. We highly recommend hardly brewing it at all, and then it’s probably quite pleasant. However, it lacked the subtlety we found with some of their other blends; the tea base overpowered all other flavours.

But maybe you like your tea that strong! It’s a hard one to find, though, because it’s not generally sold in stores. Three Tulsi was given it for free, on a visit to Glastonbury, but you can order it online at www.glastonburyincense.com.

Brand:

Flavour: Moroccan Mint

Ingredients: Chinese gunpowder green tea and peppermint leaves

Caffeine Factor: Caffeinated

Organic Ingredients: Unknown

Price Range: £4 for about 50g

Review: It’s hard to go wrong with Moroccan mint. In theory, it should be the same every time, but the strength of the ingredients, not to mention the type of peppermint used, does vary from blend to blend.

This one is as you’d expect – it smells minty, and it tastes pleasant. It’s not too strong, and not over-bitter the way some green teas can be. It’s more mint than green tea. There’s a subtlety to it, and we really enjoyed it. It’s good for the price, as well.

But it’s a hard one to find, because it’s not generally sold in stores. Three Tulsi was given it for free, on a visit to Glastonbury, but you can order it online at www.glastonburyincense.com.
