I think this is being discontinued as I got it on 50% off sale, no return stamped from Teavana.
I saw such positive reviews on Steepster I decided to try it.
I think I should have chosen mild not medium.
Post-Steep Additives: German rock sugar, sweeter but still bitter.
Resteep: same as the first.
Update: Tried again Zarafina 2 c white-loose-medium with German rock sugar
Much better! It is now tart but not bitter.
It is generically fruity and berry. I can’t pick out the specific flavors.
Bumping from 2/4 to 3/4
