This is my second tasting of this sample from Upton. The first tasting I found it to be very mild in taste yet it had this captivating aroma of pine and a whisper of smoke. I could not stop smellling the wonderful aroma. Today I upped the steep time and the amount of leaf and it improved the cup slightly for my morning cup. I do believe this is better suited for an evening tea. It is very subtle and mild. This is a very fine tea that in my opinion is better for an evening tea.
This is You :-D

Pine… I noticed that in the Zenjala Bohea I tried a couple days ago. I didn’t record it because I thought it was my imagination. Should learn to trust my instincts.
Many times I have smelled pine in the empty cup
