Lavender Dreams

Name:  Lavender Dreams


Brand:  Teavana


Primary Type:  White


Dry Scent:  Strong odours of lavender with hints of rose and grassy white tea.  Very calming to breathe in, relaxing.


Steeping Time:  2 min


Steeped Flavour: The first scent of this is also the first taste, strong lavender, with the grassy, fresh notes of the white tea underlying its slightly bitter pungency.


Food/Drink Pairings:  This blends best with a nice cookie before bed.  The lavender helps induce sleep, and the cookie cuts the bitterness of the lavender.


Rating out of Six Tails:
3.5/6


Buy/Don't Buy

Putting a buy on this, however, it is very strongly lavender, which has a tendency to be bitter, and it is also expensive.  Buy this if you like lavender teas, but I would not say buy it on a whim.  Of course, in the rating also keep in mind that I'm not terribly fond of lavender teas.  If you like them you may rate this higher.
