This tea is from my awesome black tea swap with TastyBrew! Thanks!
I was looking at the Upton website recently. It’s rather overwhelming, they have so many teas! So this one is a pleasantly sweet honeyesque cup. Not particularly bold, but definitely tasty, with a little roastiness, a little bit of that Keemun even-ness & earthyness, but the aftertaste also reminds me just a little of the leafhopper bitten teas, & I guess that is due to the honey taste.

Once you order from them, they send you an awesome print catalogue completely with a running article about the evolution of the tea trade. It’s awesome bath time reading. Their website overwhelms me but I love the catalogue. I take a red pen and circle what I want samples of and then enter the codes on the website. Super cheap shipping too.
terri – pretty sure you can just request the print catalogue without a purchase…i remember doing that because i despise their website. also their finiums when on sale are the cheapest around!
Their print catalog makes lovely bubble bath reading :)
They have a print catalog?

Hmmm…I might have to place a small order just so I can get that!
