Loose black tea leaves, I have the one from 2023. Chocolate smell from dry leaves, the tea has malty cacao notes, it completely lacks the honeysuckle flavor a Jin Jun Mei should have. The wet leaves smell like a floral black tea, no burnt notes, they are roughly 0.5-0.75 in long, very skinny.
This is one of the better samples from the Introduction to Jin Jun Mei Black Tea Sampler but still not a real Jin Jun Mei. Tastes fine though.
