Wow, this tea is delicious!
Hurray, I’ve finally made it! I’ve acquired a taste for black tea, unflavoured even! I thought that if I just kept at it, it (black tea) would be a taste that I would acquire, and yay it’s happened! Thanks to Starfevre for this sample, and for the whole adventure. I’m a happy tea-drinker. :-)
This particular tea is pretty special. I don’t get many of the flavours already mentioned here, but what I do get is a lovely smokiness, and the smell and taste of toasted whole-grain bread (organic spelt sesame bread, to be exact ;-), and perhaps some malt. It’s complex and smooth and fabulous. Mmmm…..
Oh yeah, and it IS lovely to look at… all those little soft curls.
