A blend combining the three teas, which are currently being exposed to much ado in the press regarding their alleged benefits to weight loss. Whilst there is much evidence to support tea's image of being a very healthy beverage to consume, I wonder if these facts are being manipulated to prey on our desires for a quick fix to the eternal problem of maintaining a healthy, balanced diet. However, many of you are keen to put it to the test, and anecdotally many of our customers have found these teas individually to be helpful, so we have prepared the blend as requested. It is a made up of 'Red Robe' Da Hong Pao No1, Mount Fuji Sencha, and King of Pu Erh. These teas, are delicious drunk individually and I cannot find any evidence to support their being more effective drunk as a blend, but I agree that it makes life a little easier having them together! The tea flavour is dominated by the Red Robe Oolong, with it's distinctive toasty, almost mellow pipe tobacco note and ripe fruit aftertaste. The delicate notes of the Sencha, whilst somewhat subdued by the other teas, adds a fresh edge to the cup, with the more earthy tones of the Pu Erh adding weight and body. I do not wish to enter into the world of science and add to the many claims made about this or any tea as I do not feel qualified to do so. From a personal point of view, and as you know, I love tea most for its flavours and fragrances, I do agree that tea brings about a general feeling of well-being, when prepared and drunk properly, slowly and in tranquility. For the rest, here is the link to the company marketing the latest 'Hollywood' lifestyle drink. I hope to see you back on this page when you have read it!
