14 Tasting Notes

Pours a yellow green and has a grassy mint aroma to it. It tastes like it smells. It’s crisp yet mellow and offers a moist grassy taste with subtle mint flavor that becomes apparent as the tea cools. I found some nuttiness in early infusions. Mouth feel is just okay. Very serviceable for everyday drinking, and for what it is it’s quiet good. Steeps quick and is good for several infusions.

Very smooth and balanced for an Earl grey. Initial taste is the mild black tea base with a slight orange citrus bite, but finishes creamy (almost milky). As has been stated before, you won’t be hit over the head with flavor. However, there is enough going on (and in such great proportion) that you’ll stay interested. Defiantly a relaxing cup.

Pours dark amber. A malty/earthy taste with mild sweetness that finishes with chocolate undertones. Nice. Been drinking this stuff for a little while, the stronger the better. I’ve found the best temp to drink this at is about 132F, perfect balance of flavor. Too hot and its watery, too cool and the flavors get muddled together (nasty).

Brews bright green and produces a straightforward, uncomplicated, strong grassy flavor. Very mild sweetness with multiple infusions. Mouth feel is full/well rounded. Its easy to over do it with this one (in both steep time and consumption), but at $6.50 for 50g (1.75oz) it’s worth a look. It’ll last you
