This is a subtle style of black tea that hails from an oolong dominated region yet is varietally of the Indian Assam strain. It is worth mentioning because this tea embodies much of the Assam boldness with a subdued tannic smokiness and light floral note characteristic of oolong. I will have to come back to this tea for another cupping before going into much more detail. Intriguing and very much worth the time!
