Another tea I picked up at Simpson and Vail and I like this one! A bit nutty to start and coppery and malty to finish. Very little astringency to this cup, it would blend well with other black teas. I must say this is my second favorite awesome tea from S&V, and I’d be tempted to purchase more if Beesakopie remains out of stock.
Flavors: Malty, Metallic, Nutty
I started drinking more tea about 10 years ago when I found that even my half -caf coffee was making me jittery and then sleepy after the caffeine wore off. While I started out with mostly Teavana, but soon expanded my tea cupboard to include lapsang souchon, pu-erh, Assam, and other strong black teas. I do enjoy oolongs, green, and other teas, as well as a nice tisane for an evening cuppa.
I’m not fond of jasmine or bergamont teas, though I’ll try anything once.
I am an avid traveler, hiker, soccer player/watcher.
I love trying new tea in new places, if you see something in my cupboard you want to try, hit me up for a swap!

Someday I want to learn the proper pronunciation of all these interesting tea estates!
