Good Earth Teas
www.goodearth.com
I have always enjoyed a good cup of tea, but never have gone out of my way for it; tea usually has been a beverage that I drink when sick or when offered to me.
That all changed recently when I discovered Good Earth Original Sweet & Spicy Tea & Herb Blend. This delicious tea divided and conquered my tastebuds, and now I don't go a day without one or two mugs.
The flavour of this tea is unlike anything I've ever tasted. It hits the mouth all at once, with the sweetness on the tip of the tongue and the warm spice at the back of the throat. The ingredients give some indication to the tea's unique combination of sweetness and spice: the first six ingredients listed after tea are Rose Hips, Chamomile, Cinnamon, Lemongrass, Peppermint, and Papaya. It all makes for a full, bold, distinct flavour.
The tea stands well on its own; as someone who usually adds so much honey that I end up drinking some tea with my glass of honey, this is the first black tea to which I've had no desire to add milk, cream, or sweetener. The box recommends steeping 3-4 minutes, but box directions be damned; I recommend steeping for about 12-15 minutes to allow all of the subtleties of the flavor to emerge.
Good Earth Teas use only natural ingredients and flavors. What's more, the tags on their teabag strings feature quotations from notable thinkers, giving you something to consider as you wait for your delicious tea to finish steeping.
Good Earth Original is a fine tea for burning the midnight oil in one's study, or, for that matter, to accompany anything else at any other time of day. It's the best tea I've ever had. Cheers!
