It’s a classic Yunnan, medium body with a prominent malty note. It’s smooth and not bitter, even with a long steeping. However, there are so many similar options at a lower price point (Harney, Twinings, even Mariage Freres) that I don’t see myself purchasing a full tin of this. I do feel the single origin teas from PdT are better than their blends, which I find quite weak and lacking in general. Overall, it’s a solid basic Yunnan but I do consider value for money when I score my tea, so this one comes up short. $16USD for 20 teabags is quite dear for this, in my opinion. You could get 125g of Mariage Freres Grand Yunnan (about 40 cups and a superior tea, in my opinion) for the same price.
