The dry leaves have an aroma of wheat bran, nuts, and a hint of fruit.
The pale yellow infusion has an aroma of warm fruit with a hint of honey. The taste is faintly sweet with notes of green bell pepper and malt.
A shorter steeping time brings out the sweetness in this tea and it will easily produce several more flavorful infusions.
