Been using my Fortnum & Mason sampler at least once a week so I can move on to other teas. Today I picked two bags of Darjeeling and one bag of Ceylon Orange Pekoe.
Went with a short steep time and as usual, it still came out dark and full-bodied. The two teas go well together. Fresher, wilder notes from the darjeeling, but hearty and malty notes from the ceylon. Just a touch of bitterness. Hmm. Maybe I’ll make this one twice this week.
Really counting on the caffeine today…
