One of the very few pure spearmint herbal teas available in tea bags.
The tea smells strongly and recognizably of spearmint even before adding water. After steeping, the tea has a pronounced spearmint flavor with just enough herbal notes to avoid tasting like candy.
A second steeping still carries a lot of flavor. The flavor this time is more strongly herbal, tasting very much like catnip.
At a typical retail of $5 for 16 tea bags, Traditional Medicinals herbal teas cost two or three times as much as Bigelow and offer similar quality. Traditional Medicinals, however, has a much wider selection and unblended spearmint doesn't seem to be popular enough for more mainstream brands.
