Chamomile from Equal Exchange
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Egypt80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 3rd, 2017
Served in Brewed Awakenings coffee shop in Newark, DE.
This chamomile in a humble, flat teabag impressed me with its clean, crisp flavor and bright, fresh aroma. More floral than most chamomile, also fruity, suggesting apple. There is a noticeable absence of the typical bitter aftertaste as well, although the finish...
