Thursday Teas: Anela by Lupicia

Lupicia describes this tea as a "Lychee flavored jasmine tea with pink argents that look like flying angels." I am really not so big on jasmine tea, but it smelled so gooooooood... like lychee, which reminds me of all those summers of gorging myself on sweet, juicy, tree ripened lychee. So I had to try this one out.

To be honest, I am not a huge fan of this tea.  It is probably because I don't like jasmine tea to begin with.  One thing I've noticed is that although Lupicia teas have very exotic, non-tea smells, they do generally taste very much like the actual tea.  I probably should've realized that this wouldn't be one of my favorites... but it was pink and sparkly and smelled of lychee with beautiful dried jasmine buds.

It's not bad enough that I'd throw the rest out, but I doubt I'll be buying more of this one on my next trip to the store.
