This tea is not bad, and not incredible either. It has the strong taste of malt and a second note of baked bread. There is a slight bitterness. At least that is how I can best describe it. I bought this tea out of curiosity because of the name Yixing Black Tea. It is not as good as the famoust teapots but I was hoping. I have already decided that I would not buy this again. This is an excellent tea for someone who likes malt in tea (by this I do not mean chocolate malt).

I brewed this once in an 18 oz teapot with 3 tsp leaf and boiling water for 3 min.

Flavors: Bread, Malt

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 18 OZ / 532 ML

IIRC potters in Yixing drink this type of tea every day.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
