Wednesday is Green Tea, White Tea, Rooibos, Oolong and Tisane (Herbal) Review Day!
Goji berries are an understated flavor accessory. I’m of the opinion they’re not used frequently enough. From the wonderful female duo over at Fully Loaded Tea comes this Goji Force Green Tea.

This tea comes in pyramid sachets. Very popular in the industry for a few years now. Fortunately, Katya and Olga also found a way to use big berry slices and larger leaf sizes than I usually expect, all in one of these little silken wonders.
The liquor infuses to a light amber gold and provides an aroma with notes of light spice and light hints of grassiness expected with green teas.
With notes of honey some berry taste and an easy finish this tea is extremely comforting to drink. There is a slight spiced bit, almost like pepper, in the tail… but it’s subtle and not at all overpowering.
I recommend this tea to drinkers of spiced beverages, fruit teas and medium to light bodied green teas.
I’m sure this tea is really good for you with the Goji berries. But it looks like it’s really expensive and that’s a drawback. It’s probably overpriced just for the name of the exotic fruit.
I agree with you. Katya and Olga aren’t yet selling loose versions of their teas, but I hope they will eventually, and I hope the price comes down when they do. Economies of scale and all that.
Still, this tea has a good flavor, aroma and body. I can mail you a couple sachets if you’d like.
Hi – just a quick question, immposible to find a link here in Canada for this tea…even though it originated here…could you tell me where this product is sold close to the US. border. Thanks
Helen,
I’m not sure of specific retailers which may offer the Goji Force Green Tea from FullyLoadedTea at or near the border with the States.
However, visiting http://www.fullyloadedtea.com allows you to select whether you’re in Canada or the US before ordering so you know the price in the correct currency.
I’ve ordered from the sister’s a couple times and have enjoyed a number of their TEAS.
