I am not crazy about additional herbal flavors added to white tea and it holds true for this tea.
Why did I buy it? Guess I didn't know this until after trying several types.

I also feel the same way about added flavors, most of the time.
I haven't tried any teas from this company, but my experience with flavored white teas in tea bags is that they often use lower-quality base teas than pure white teas, so that might be another factor. Chrysanthemum is also a bit of an odd aroma. I like it, but it's peculiar and I can see a lot of people not liking that smell in their tea, even if they like the smell of the flowers. It's something I have to be in the right mood for, and don't like frequently.
Lemongrass though is an herb that I really like. I actually prefer it when blended with rooibos (South African red tea) but I think it can blend well with green, white, or even black tea too.
