This was part of my giant sample order from teabox. The leaves are olive green, and are large, although there is a largish amount of twigs included. It’s slightly astringent, and floralish – not overly so, but there are floral hints in the tea. It’s sweet, and light bodied. A nice tea, and an interesting Darjeeling.

Did you order one of the sample sets? Or are you a subscriber? What do you think of Teabox so far? I’m curious because I just joined Golden Tips. ;-)
I ordered one of the sample sets (the all the Darjeelings one). It is an excellent deal and the tea is spectacular. I started out sipping it at home, but decided to bring the entire box to work, and taste my way through it with my friends and coworkers. It was a sensation, with people being stunned by the sheer amount of samples, and tasters having fun drawing from the box.
I am on a tea buying hiatus, in preparation for a trip to London in September, so no new tea at all, only what I buy in London, and after that I am allowed to buy only a little bit during Black Friday. I have too much tea and not enough room in the house for it, so that’s why I’ve stopped my Verdant subscription and am not joining any new subscription services.
But Teabox have a great selection, a great website and awesome customer service. I highly recommend them!
