Review of Pure Peppermint

Less of the strong peppermint aroma than most peppermint teas...very dark in color, unusually so...more of the general leafy/herbaceous aroma. Not at all sour and very little bitterness or sweetness...this is primarily an aromatic tea.
Noticeably more complexity than Lipton's peppermint. Among bagged peppermint teas I prefer this to all that I've sampled, other than Two Leaves and a Bud's peppermint...but this one is much more reasonably priced.
I still think it's a bit silly to buy peppermint tea if you live in the midwest or northeast though, where it's easy to grow an almost infinite supply of this herb...and nothing I have bought has ever approached the quality of what I grow myself.
