May 2015 Simple Loose Leaf Review

                   

There are some things in life that just bring a sense of comfort. It's different for everyone but one of my favorite comfort items has always been and will always be a great cup of hot tea. While I adore soda and a great cup of coffee, there's something about tea that just soothes me inside and out. So of course, I love sampling new teas like the ones in my Simple Loose Leaf box!

With that, you also get to enjoy a 50% discount in their shop so you will be able to order the teas you really enjoyed for just $2-$3 per ounce. 

                        

My first peak had me ready to grab my tea kettle asap!

Gunpowder Green --- this green tea is my absolute favorite. It's a classic flavor and is made of leaves that have been hand rolled into tiny pellets.

Thai Chi Tea --- a 'creamy and succulent' blend that suggest being served chilled. I like this one but it's a bit to weak for my tastes.

Spearmint Herbal --- very clean taste! I normal have an aversion to minty teas but the spearmint is much more enjoyable and milder than others I have brewed.

Sungma Summer Darjeeling --- I adore this one! Not only does it smell fabulous, it also tastes pretty incredible. It has notes of white grape that make it both sweet and tangy. It's lovely!

Senna Leaf and Anise Herbal Pu'er --- this tea is supposedly great for calm sing an upset stomach and the anise and licorice help to relax the senses as well.

Sweetener and Muslin Tea Bags --- the addition of these little items was much appreciated! The sweetener is delicious and I can never have to many reusable tea bags (I prefer to brew with these or my tea infuser!)

I really enjoyed sampling each of my teas and very happy to discover some new favorites! There are so many varieties out there that I never know which ones to try so this subscription is a great help. Add the 50% member discount and you've got one tea subscription that you can't live without! So grab a box, brew a cup and enjoy some Simple Loose Leaf perfection!
