It's so zingy! I love the mouthfeel. I should have saved this for the morning, though it has no caffeine. ETA: Oh! Now I understand why it was so much more citrus-y than expected when I read the ingredients on the tea description. It's actually green rooibos citron, not green rooibos bonita. Remember to update your tea descriptions/labels, pals!

Apollo isn’t really a Yay, or a Nay for me it’s more of a “meh.” This is a nice tea. Don’t get me wrong, I like white teas, sometimes they are a welcome change from my usual bolder, spicier choices. This one just didn’t do much for me, at 7:30 a.m. It would be a lovely tea for a spring afternoon tea with little cucumber sandwiches and petit fours. I added a bit of honey dust, which was the perfect sweetener for this light, delicate tea.

I've been on a flavored white tea kick for a month so this really hit the spot. Love the citrus flavor and the rooiboos texture mellows it out just right. Thought I'd sweeten it after the first sip but a busy morning routine meant I didn't get around to it, and I was glad I didn't -- the flavor was worth revisiting by itself. Good stuff!

A lovely afternoon tea. I'm working from home and needed a dose of Apollonian valor to get through a project without distraction, and this will do the trick. I like white teas and find their flavor so delicate that added flavor isn't necessary, yet the added flavors here are subtle enough to work well.

It is a pleasant noon time tea before lunch. Many flavors though and I can say I can distinguish the specific ingredients. It’s definitely a more complex flavor than I’m used to drinking. I like it, but I’m not likely to buy it. I’m a more simple flavor person.
