The tea steeps very quickly, so I would not leave the bag in long to avoid overbrewing

Taste wise, it's an earthy smooth taste

I'd say that this herb is every bit as effective as the Rx diuretic they gave me in the hospital a bit over three years ago

Prior to trying the product (I am into experimenting with herbs for health enhancement), I researched Gynostemma, and I found that it's an herb that is relatively-new and is not a part of TCM

It has a natural and herbal sort of flavor, so it probably isn't for everyone

As for the flavor, it is a little tough to describe
