Last week Kuhitsu and I went to this little tea and coffee shop called Mandragora.
And because we love tea, I bought 3 different various of tea:
First one is Mojito Blues, seasoned green tea: 
It contains green tea, lime, lemon zests (peel), organic mint, sugar crystals,Helichrysum arenarium, Musk thistle, Marigold and aroma.
The scent is very strong when it's still in the bag but after brewing the scent is actually very delicate and taste is very fruity.
I like this tea 
The second on is organic tea called Sitruunamyrtti or in English: Lemon Myrtle:
This tea contains lemon, lemon grass, lime and lemon myrtle.
The taste is very fruity and energetic, scent is actually pretty mild but you can easily smell the lemon there 
This tea is also very tasty.
And I actually like that this tea is organic.
And the last but not the least....
White specialty: China Silver Strawberry or Kiinan hopeamansikka in Finnish
Tea leaves are wrapped by hands in to a shape that reminds a bit of strawberry.And then this little ball opens like a flower in a tea cup:Taste is very, very mild, typical white tea flavor. Very nice with some honey.
This tea is quite expensive here: one "strawberry" costs 1€, which is about 1,5 USD or 10 CNY.
Next time when we are going for a visit in this little shop I'm going to buy some special coffees because I'm so bored to this regular, tasteless Finnish coffee. And because we drink only two cups of coffee in the morning It's nice to know that it's something special and it brings some luxury to our weekdays
