Recently started buying Harney and Sons and I'm impressed with the different teas I've purchased. When I opened the can, I was surprised how aromatic it was and can smell the lavender and chamomile. So now, this is part of my nightly routine.
Have been searching for a great tasting chamomile/lavender tea and finally found it! The flavor of both are evenly balanced, packaging is nice, def signed up for their subscription, my nightly ritual. Def recommend for all the floral tea lovers!
Harney and Sons make some of the best herbal teas out there. My eternal beef with herbals is the weak flavour. Even following brewing instructions, I shouldn't end up with something that vaguely tastes like a fruit or flower if I cross my eyes and pretend really hard. Several popular brands stay hidden in the back of my tea cabinet -- yes, I have a tea cabinet, I'm English -- never to emerge to the light of day unless I'm gifting them along like a bad present to someone of less discerning (picky) palate.
I bought Yellow and Blue on a lark, wanting to try an herbal and knowing there'd be a strong chance it might not meet my needs. I swear, though, put 'cornflower' in front of anything and I will buy it. Or consider buying it. Cornflower motor oil? I'm all over it. A cornflower tea caught my eye immediately. The lavender and chamomile are positive flavours I enjoy so the blend makes a splendid brew in theory. The silk pyramidal bags also promised to make a good brew, since I find they bring out the flavours better than flat, pierced rounds or square teabags.
When brewed properly, Yellow and Blue is a perfectly serviceable herbal tea with strong hints of lavender lying over the mild chamomile. This is one tea you can let cool a fair bit without any trouble and it's well suited to travel mugs for that purpose. I went back to it after a long meeting at work and found the richness didn't diminish in the least. Still, it wasn't quite the wallop to the tastebuds I hoped for, dreaming of a mouthful of fragrant, floral goodness. The fragrance came through. The taste? Not so much.
After some experimentation, I say try making a pot or cup at near boiling water, two bags strong. That made all the difference for the slightly lacklustre finish for me, and then it became a spectacular infusion of lavender and cornflower with chamomile underneath. A few dots of clover honey really polished out the rounded notes, gilding them just enough to ensure I wasn't drinking a mouthful of petals. For those new to floral herbals, I promise it's not like draining a vase of water from a bouquet! It's really a delicate taste, and even doubled up for a strong brew, the taste is a symphony to the senses.
