It's taste reminds me a bit of Sugar Smacks without the sugar, or even Sheerios. A co-worker who tasted it said it reminds her of coffee, which I can see too.Recent studies have shown it has many health benefits, including the ability to improve the fludity of the blood.
It may not be everyone's cup of tea (sorry, had to), but it is worth trying at least once I'd say. I'm not sure how that translates into overall well being, but I know that drinking it makes me feel healthy, and I enjoy the flavor.
I lived in Japan for 4 years so perhaps I was predisposed to like this sort of thing, but after trying it once at a Japanese restaurant, I was hook. Well, you'd be suprised.
I have a container at work and I sip iced Barley tea throughout the day. I recently found this product and recommend it highly.One teabag makes a large pitch of this pleasant, mild tea.
Doesn't sound like a good taste for tea you say.
It is a kind of cultural icon. I don't drink coffee, black or green tea for health and personal reasons. Surprisingly in Seoul, many restaurants serve barley tea, called bori-cha as their standard free beverage.
Apparently, we are behind in the discovery of this wonderful tea.The taste of barley tea is a bit like regular tea, say Lipton, but softer. Tea made from barley is healthy, refreshing and enjoyable. Most importantly for me, this tea is healthy and natural.
The idea of boiling grain to make a tea never occurred to me. My Korean colleagues consider this sacrilege, but I still recommend it.Barley tea is also popular in Japan and Ecuador. You must try some.
Most of my Korean colleagues love it. Growing up with Honey nut Cheerios, I assumed that barley needs honey, so I added honey to my barley tea and it is to die for.
