Stash Lemon Ginger

Sorry about the lack of posts recently, the holidays and lack of an internet connection was hindering. My first post in 2010 is Stash's herbal Lemon Ginger tea. Now I've tried many teas with lemon and ginger before, but not one with lemon and ginger.

Indian cuisine seems to be the theme of this tea. The smell put out by this mimics a lemon lentil dish perfectly with a zesty-spicy lemon scent. Once sipped the ginger factor appears as a bite and lemon takes a back seat but remains potent. It's hard to divide the two as well because they're both spicy in the same way. Once I finished my cup a light warmth lingered in my mouth like the kind you get after a hot Mexican (or Indian) meal.

Even though this tea is unlike any other I've had before with the heat and parallels to past Asian meals, I give Stash's Lemon Ginger a C (decent). Tea shouldn't be spicy like this. If you're looking for a tea to match your dinner containing a large dose of curry, I'd go and find this.
