Thank you Napali Tea Trader’s for this sample. This tea is quite tasty. It is not really puerh even thyough I don’t doubt it’s fermented. It is a delicious, malty black tea. Definitely get hints of dry grapes as another reviewer suggested. The malt is not overpowering. It reminds me a lot of a breakfast tea but is more mild than one from Sri Lanka. If I ever get around to an order from Nepali Tea Traders and they are on my list, I will buy this tea.
I steeped this tea twice in a 8oz glass teapot with the entire sample, 1.7g leaf and boiling water. I steeped it for 3 min and 4 min.
Flavors: Malt
