There were popping noise while steeping! It was surprising.
This was a sample pack I choose when I placed my last order online.
I believe it may have done better with a bit of honey, it wasn't as gingery as I was expecting from the name and was a nice tea to keep me on my toes as it cycled through various pleasant flavors.
