Additional notes: The tea had an amazingly wonderful smell when I opened the sachet. It was a calming and soothing smell. I smelled a little bit of black tea, and as the manufacturer mentioned, it has been seasoned, so I assume there might be other ingredients that gave out its lovely aroma.

There was an unexpected flavour, and I was surprised. When I finished tasting tea, I felt a mild salted flavour staying on my lips, making me conclude it was seasoning indeed, but in a very reasonable quantity. In this case, it was the most original black tea I have ever tried since I started tasting different teas.

I could not sense seasoning while sipping this tea, but it unfolded eventually after tasting this tea. It is a masterpiece from the manufacturer.

I observed the tea bag and found that the tea has other ingredients added, indeed.

I tried this tea at the Metropolo Jinjiang hotel.

Additional notes: Interestingly, that this tea was called as Rose Green tea, not just Green tea. As I observed the tea bag, I found pinkish rose petals teared in tiny pieces. The bled of the warming green colour and pink was a mazing.

The green tea aroma coming out of the tea bag was peasant, when I opened the sachet. The smell was warm-green tea, calming and soothing. It was not such effective when I poured water on tea, reducing almost by a half.

Regardless I rated the tea aroma just 4/5, I still think that it was the best aroma of all-time, judged by the dry tea bag that exposed this lovely aroma.

Though, flavour reminded me of medicine and it could not stand out.

I came to conclusion after tasting this tea that the most enjoyable was the tea aroma making me think that it was the best smell of the all-time since I taste teas (around 2 years and 10 month).

It was soothing and relaxing. I would love to sense this smell in my sleeping pillow before I go to sleep.

But according to my experience, it is wrong to judge the flavour of the tea. Logically, it should be a very tasty tea. It proved that I was right. Taste was not such exciting as the aroma.

On the other hand, I consider that this tea might be one of the most expensive green teas I have tried, because it contains rose petals.
