Herb Bar

I got this Keemun from The Herb Bar in Austin. I’m sure it its re-packaged from a wholesaler, I just don’t know which one. I am a Keemun devotee. Sadly, I dislike this one very, very much. This has an overpowering creosote taste and aroma. I finished it, but was not happy about it and did not resteep. Maybe a second steeping would have been better, but I disliked the first so much that I just couldn’t. It has very sharp edges, which might not be so bad if it didn’t taste like I was drinking tar.
