I was pretty excited to try this peppermint tea. I wanted to smell the peppermint for that good morning wake up smell, don't get me wrong it did smell like peppermint, but very light your nose really had to get close to the tea cup in order to smell it. It was not as strong as I hoped it would be. The tea was watered down and not strong at all you can taste the mint as an after taste. A lot of people love to wake up to a fresh strong coffee smell to get there day going. I am still searching for a strong morning tea smell to get my day going.
I love peppermint anything! Toothpaste, real pepper mint candies, etc. This is not peppermint. If you go to the health food store and buy bulk dried peppermint leaves you get the aromatic oils still in the leaves. This means the taste is bright, strong, even "icy". This product is anything but. The leaves are old, the aromatics are completely gone. The taste is woody, harsh, brittle, dry. I simply cannot agree with others who found this tea to be peppermint. This can't even be called mint tea in the usual sense. Do not buy.
