A lively blend that could be one of Chade's secret energizing teas. The bright, caffeinated punch of yerba mate is the prominent flavor here, with additional lively notes of citrus. Ginger adds an extra bit of kick, smoothed over by the natural sweetness of anise. The natural smoky notes of gunpowder green tea add a grounding counterpoint, and an echo of his explosive experiments.
“ I'm not a personal fan of aniseed, as I'm super-sensitive to licorice flavors. The aniseed in this one is pretty mild, but I do still notice it. However, I find I still rather enjoy this blend for the bright citrus notes. The mate really does have an energizing effect, and I can picture Chade drinking this by the fire in his hidden chambers. ”
“ This tea, like all in this fandom, is so well thought out. While the flavor isn't one of my most favorites- the level of caffeine is and that is so Chade. I can just imagine my favorite spider drinking this to stay awake on an epic journey. ”
“ So good! I love the combo of green and mate, and the choice of flavors are so on point for Chade. It's good for if I want green with an extra kick. Will definitely be ordering more! ”
“ I was looking forward to trying the 'gunpowder' tea and thought it was very fitting for Chade! Like others, I was expecting more of an explosive flavour. The recommended 3 minute steep time is not nearly enough to taste half of the flavours in this tea. Once I steeped it longer, I really tasted the anise seed. The ginger and citrus notes were still subtle. It is an energizing tea - which I can imagine the old spider drinking up in his secret chambers while plotting his next assignment. ”
