Really enjoying this tea. Just got it yesterday.

My first session with it, what I notice about it first is its robustness. It has a roasted character that combines with strong savory notes to evoke a hearty broth.

As it steeps out, the sweetness comes out, as do the cocoa and malt characteristics.

Mild astringency, just enough to wake up the tongue and leave it feeling a bit tingly on the aftertaste.

I don’t know if this is going to be my new go-to black tea, but it’s really darned good.

Computer geek and dad by day, soapmaker and artist by night! I have enjoyed drinking tea since I was tiny, and have tried everything from dehydrated Lipton crystals to aged pu-erh.

Only recently learned about and tried out Chinese gong fu brewing, and find I really like it.
