This was in my last order from A Quarter To Tea. A dessert-y black tea with a real aroma like spiced rum. The maple is definitely present, adding a sweet note. The tea base is Jun Chiyabari black tea. I’m not familiar with that tea. It brews up rather light in color (compared to say, a robust breakfast tea) And the scent is marvelous. For me, the flavor wasn’t as good as the scent. But you know my sense of smell is weak, and that detracts from my sense of taste. Others may find the flavor to be as strong as the scent. I should add that the antibiotic is again adding a slight edge to what I taste, so my rating may well go up next time I drink this.
I thought this was a very nice tea, but I much prefer the Orange Rum Truffle. Still, I’ll have no trouble finishing the ounce I got.
Flavors: Maple, Rum
