This tea is good but not as good as some of the Yunnan Teas I recently got from Yunnan Sourcing. It has strong notes of malt and chocolate and a lesser note of spice. That one surprised me. I bought this and two other black teas from Dragon Tea House just recently. We will see how they are. I expect a certain level of quality from Dragon Tea House and this one meets it, but just barely. It is good I don’t dislike this tea because I went out on a limb and bought 250g.

I brewed this one time in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and 200 degree water for 3 min. I think this tea might be better with 190 degree water and a 2 minute steep and I shall try that next time.

Flavors: Chocolate, Malt, Spicy

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 15 sec 3 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

Another note on this tea, it gets better as it cools.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
