1629 Tasting Notes
Had this last night! Just added 1/2 a teaspoon and mixed it with Adagio’s Rooibos Vanilla. So tasty! There are more spices than rooibos in there. I just added a tsp of honey but like usual it tastes great with or without it!
Preparation
I love this tea. I’ve been on this trend of drinking one or two kinds of tea everyday until I’m finished with it. This is a great morning black tea. I still have 1/2 lb left of it! I’m so glad! I mixed it with brown sugar and milk. The leaves are CTC – small and granular, so I don’t need to steep it long to get a robust flavor.
Preparation
Wow! I like this more and more each time I make a cup! When its dry, the leaves are so pretty. They look like soft curls of gold brown and black. The scent is sweet and a little earthy to me. Steeped, it is divine. I love the malt-like flavor and the sweetness. It doesn’t need milk and sugar, but it doesn’t seem to hurt either. It faintly reminds me of Keemun. But this is better. I don’t like to steep this one for long. I feel like it tastes better that way :)
