Green vegetal aroma. Roasted courgette note on the sip which blooms into a sweet floral note. Grapefruit-like aftertaste near the back of the tongue. Medium mouth-feel. As the tea is cooling and I am able to drink it more quickly, I am getting a sticky sweet note near the aftertaste.

Mild vegetal flavour. Some astringency. Fresh bean-y sweetness. Slight sourness. Toasted almond note.

Mild buttery spinach vegetal flavour. Sweet note. Savoury note. I think I would enjoy this tea infused for a bit longer than 2 minutes.

I tried to infuse for a longer amount of time but the actual tea flavour is still very washed out. I can definitely taste the smokiness but even the rose flavour is quite muted.

Overall mild flavour. Bean-y note. Slight floral note on the end of the sip. Moderate mouthfeel which goes well with the flavour profile. Very smooth.

Strong smoked salmon smokey note in the aroma, which I have found to be characteristic of all the Dalreoch teas I have sampled thus far. The smokey note in the aroma is very well captured in the actual flavour of the tea.
The smokey note does not combine well with the sweetness of the rose petal. The tea flavour itself seems mild and dull. Overall, I feel that the major flavours are not well-balanced. Mouthfeel is moderate-thin.

Sweet and malty with good mouthfeel.
