Tea tasting: Tea Forte's Lemon Lavender

Tea Forte's Lemon Lavender herbal tisane smells amazing, rich with lavender and hints of citrus.  By smell alone, it's the perfect tea to drink while contemplating the possibility of sleep.

The base of the tea is chamomile, with lavender, lemon, apple and linden leaves added.  The chamomile is definitely there.  However, the tisane is overwhelmingly lavender in aroma and taste.  Lemon seems to be the middle ground, present in the background and the aftertaste.

This tea is not going to be to everyone's taste, but I adore lavender and it completely works for me on all the necessary levels.  It's calming and soothing, while also being brisk and palette-clearing.  I suspect it would be remarkable in iced form.
