TotD – Tazo Green Ginger, originally uploaded by edkohler.
Today’s tea of the day is Tazo’s Green Ginger.
Ginger is the highlight here, with a light scent and mild flavor.
They say there are natural flavors in this thing, but I have no idea what that means.
It’s not at bitter as some green teas I’ve tried, but that could be due to less hot water. Whatever it is, it worked for me.
I’m a big fan of Tazo teas. I usually go for the “Zen” green tea, I really like the touch of peppermint it has. On the other hand though, I don’t really like the “Om” green at all it has a strange peach flavor that I seems out of place.
I don’t know about the tea, but you definitely kicked your tea service up a notch. 😉
I love the ‘Zen’ as well, but I’ve never seen this one before (admittedly I do most of my shopping at Target, so there you go). I *love* ginger, so I’ll keep an eye out.
This is the best green tea I’ve ever had! For a couple of years, I enjoyed most of Tazo’s flavors; indulging in iced zen and hot china green tips more than daily. When the green ginger came out, I was frightened of a severely strong ginger taste that would most deffinitely make me gag. Bravely, I sampled… The ginger is surprisingly subtle and smooth, perfectly balanced with refreshing pear notes; all with my favorite green tea characteristics. My kitchen is never without it!
