Lovely vanillic overtones, with notes of hazelnuts and apricots. Lighter than expected, very little malt. Clean finish with mild tannins. Dark, reddish color in the cup.
I’ve been an inveterate tea drinker since I was 8. As a perfume aficionado, I focus heavily on aroma, and mainly stick to unflavored blacks and oolongs. I do drink tisanes as a late night alternative to caffeine.
