Tee Faktorei

This is another custom blend from my blogger buddy – Teaconomics. Took me awhile to get a write-up about it done and to issue the proper feedback. Like the Taiga blend, this was smoky but with an underpinning of…something else. Hard to describe but easy to taste. And it’s smoky…I love smoke. I just do.

A blogger friend of mine sent me three blends of his own devising. The first that caught my attention was (naturally) the smoky one. What was funny about the blend is that I found green oolong in the midst – highly unusual. This is a very gentle Russian Caravan variant. It was both smoky and floral with a smooth underpinning of malt and tobacco. A very manly hug of a morning cup.
