I received this tea in a swap with Dexter3657 thank you so much for sending me such a lovely black tea.
It smells cocoa and a earthy not. I brew it western style. The liquor is quite darked amber.
I really enjoy it both very hot and as it cools even if I absolutely agree with Dexter3657 the main lovely notes for me , the fruity ones & apricot especially and baked bread, are most present while the tea is cooling.
The only little point is I would have prefered it with a little bit more body and it is “just” medium bodied. This is a very little point because I do frankly love it.
I’ll retry with a longer steep to see if I can ameliorate the body to adjust to my tastes.
