This is a tea that has been in my cupboard for YEARS! My husband bought this tin and I’m pretty sure that was prior to us meeting, so I’d give it at least 11 years. No telling how long he had it before. With the massive amount of tea that I own I think he forgot that he bought it and I often overlook it because it’s not a tea I picked out.
I added a little creamer to my cup and I’m getting some really nice smooth flavor. It’s a little earthy in the finish, like puerh, but has a sweetness on the sip. It’s almost like puerh lite. It’s a little nutty and I think I get some of the cocoa hints that others have mentioned. It’s a solid tea that I’ll have to pay more attention to!
