TEA REVIEW – Rangsaa Maximus

maximus-reviewDry leaves
Herbal infusion is a mix of dry cut herbs, roots and spices of different shades of green. Aroma is impressive – strong herbal, with citrus, floral, earthy and spicy hints. And a wonderful peppery edge.

Infused Tea/Unique Characteristics
The leaves brew a cloudy golden color liquor. Aroma is a blend of herbal and grassy notes with spicy essence. On the palate, the infusion goes through bouquet of unique flavours. The top herbaceous, umami flavors harmoniously balance the zesty, spicy, licoricy and floral undertones, with a buttery-smooth, sweet finish. The strong flavor of stevia wonderfully balances the herbal, complex characters of the drink. The taste, flavors and aroma tell you right away, that this isn’t just another tea – it’s a delicious drink.

Infusion
1 tsp of leaves were infused in 200 ml pre-boiled (at 100C) for 7 minutes. As the tea steeped for a few minutes, the pleasant aroma grew stronger. The citrusy, spicy and herbal flavors blended the taste of both summer and winter. The second infusion resulted from boiling the herbs for a minute. It was robust, divine and tasted very healthy. The most lovable attribute about the tea is that it’s equally aromatic and flavorful and ends with a sweet lingering long finish. Quite a tea experience!

Along with the unique and delicious flavor, Maximus has some potential health benefits. It is a robust herbal infusion, without any caffeine and has 100% pure adulterated power. I call it the superhero tea. It’s a great substitute to sugary energy and aerated drinks, and is a great addition to fitness enthusiast’s arsenal. It’s a modern tea movement!

TEA REVIEW – Rangsaa Elevate

elevate-reviewDry Leaves
Tea is a blend of tender black tippy tea leaves with exotic herbs and spices. There are scattered golden tips with white fuzz. The blend of brown and green color scheme, gives it an elegant and sophisticated appeal, and a woodland feel. Aroma is strong and enticing – with oaky, spicy, floral, sweet and citrusy (precisely ripe peaches) hints.

Infused tea/Unique Characteristics
The leaves brew a golden-amber color liquor. The aroma is herbaceous and spicy. On the palate, the infusion is distinctively vibrant and balances bouquet of complex aroma and flavors, with a mellow sweetness, and a wonderful buttery-mouthfeel. The top malty, smokey and citrusy notes, pleasantly heighten the underlying caramel-floral essence. The texture is thick and creamy, and it coats the mouth with a delicious sweet-aftertaste.

Infusion
One heaping teaspoon of tea was infused in 200 ml pre-boiled water (100C) for 7 minutes. The infusion is medium-full body, with almost no astringency and bitterness. When brewed for 10 minutes, the aroma and flavors were delightfully enhanced. The second infusion at 15 minutes carried forward some attributes – a good cup of tea for those who like mild, delicate teas.

This is a harmonious tea blend, which is equally flavorful and aromatic. Even brewed at 20 mins the tea is not bitter. There’s no way you can ruin this tea. It’s that good. Make it how you like it!
