Some teas you drink over and over until they are a part of your very being. This Darjeeling and Keemun blend sneaks up on you. Maybe a few times a month, then a few times a week, and then everyday.

Another never before opened sample.
Do abbots drink a lot of tea? I’m pretty sure I have seen other tea blend names before that sound like something related to a monastery.
According to the packet, it not only has Darjeeling and Keemun, but also Assam and Nilgiri teas. It has a cocoa and malt note in the packet.
Which is pretty much the aroma of the steeped tea as well, with a lovely garnet colored clear liquor.
After tasting I wonder whether some of the knot I experienced yesterday may actually have been a burn, from drinking tea that was too hot the day before yesterday. Anyway, this tastes really awesome! The flavor is strong, and the tea is full bodied, but it’s smooth and not a stomach churner. It doesn’t have the sort of piquant high note that darjeelings often do, but it does have a smoky cocoa flavor in the finish that is just lovely.
Putting it on the wish list.
Flavors: Cocoa, Malt, Smoke
