Interesting. Darjeeling meets… Keemum? there is a distinct muscatel note, rising into an astringent note, all hanging in a keemum/hay shadow.
I got three good steeps out of the bag, and my last was the best.
Can’t say I’m in love with it as I prefer my teas a little naturally sweeter/malty but it was an experience worth having. I’m considering picking it up for the travelling tea box I got in the mail today! SQUEEEEE!!!

Sheesh. The employees at my local DT hadn’t even heard of this one. I hate being more knowledgeable (by FAR) than the employees… one new guy there was… clearly new, and knew virtually nothing…
Mine didn’t have it either! I was so sad! :(
Ohmygoodness, I KNOW right?! So many times I’ve gone in and they don’t even know about rinsing or first/second flushes. Le sighs.
Sorry to hear your location doesn’t have it yet :(
Finally read the tea description. Dang, I was hoping it was a Japanese “kocha”.
Geoffrey: ahhh sorry bout that! DT brought out a bunch of new teas,might be worth checking out.
