Review of Super Star Anise
December 11th, 2021
Aroma | Flavor | Value | Total |
8 of 10 | 4 of 5 | 3 of 5 | 76 of 100 |
Excellent | Good | Reasonable |
Cup at home, made from a sachet containing a mixture of black tea leaves, pieces of ginger, cloves and star anise, all organic and sprinkled with natural flavourings. Pours slightly hazy copper brown (against white china) with negligible sediment. Clear aroma of anise, cloves and ginger, with touches of black tea leaves. Bitter, leafy flavour with spicy notes of ginger and cloves, and sweetish touches of anise. Astringent palate with malty, leafy and spicy aftertaste. A nice one. Thank you, Sigrid, for this gem! (The sachet is part of the 2021 Premium Advent Calendar; the price per sachet is rather high then by local standards: 4 DKK per 2.5 g.)
