This tea sounded completely amazing, so maybe my expectations were a little too high. I’m pretty underwhelmed by it. It smells vaguely nutty both before and after brewing. The taste is a little chocolately and a little generically nutty. It’s a pleasant cup, but I probably won’t restock this tea once it’s gone. I’d be pleased to send some out for swaps if anyone is interested :)
Flavors: Chocolate, Nuts
Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.
I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.
Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!
I’m up for swaps!
