Method: 1.5 tsp, 8 oz, 205 degrees, 45 seconds, Forlife brew in mug strainer & Dr. Who mug
Dry Leaf Aroma: O. M. G. This is positively sublime. See how it made me use a word like “sublime”? It smells like roasty chocolate, malt, and roses. That’s right. Roses.
Brewing Aroma: Very malty, but with a hint of something interesting that I can’t quite place.
Flavor: This is exceptionally lovely. It’s smooth, with just a hint of astringency on the end. It tastes like slowly roasted, light malts with a little floral note. It’s not sweet, but it certainly doesn’t need any sugar. I think it’s an amazing tea. I received a sample from MzPriss (thank you thank you thank you), and I am on my way to buy more NOW.

It’s rare that I place an order for more than an ounce of tea, since I really love sampling a huge variety, but this one was definitely a bulk purchase. Can’t wait to get more. :)
Your description makes this seem so up my alley and all of the other reviews rave about it. I wasn’t planning to order more tea this weekend, but oh well…
You are so welcome. I’m glad you love it like I love it

I really hope you like it. It was just so darn smooth. I am happy that more of this is on the way!
