Yea good idea, I was thinking of doing that but like you said the only explanation is basic effects and that only really applies to a few + every herb is soothing after been infused. To actually explain how each leaf effects the experience is rather hard, which is why I simply suggested the 4 best leafs in my opinion - from there a new person can/should simply pick one of those for their first attempt. Once they have an appreciation and understanding of a few herbs they could then widen their scope and start looking into some less usual ones.

But I think you're right and some simple descriptions would come in handy.

However for beginners I think it's better to experiment with one herb at a time and then mix and match the leafs they liked best if they wished, as it's a bit subjective in terms of choice/preference. Different blends of leaf in a mix can create different atmospheres and be used for different reasons, but so can individual leafs. None the less though I'll post some blend brands and if anyone has any others they liked throw in some suggestions and we can start to form a list aimed towards the more experienced Changarians who are looking for something different.

I'd assume 96% would work fine..

You could give it a go but you'd be surprised how smooth it is already.
