Getting close to half way through this tin and still haven’t written notes.
I find this a bit harsher than I like. A bit astringent and maybe something else? Hard to describe. Its not bad necessarily. I’ll likely finish it, but its not something I actually enjoy.
Astringency gets harsher as it cools.
Another that might work well with add-ins if you are an add-in type of person.

I don’t drink much Assam but I bought this to share with a friend who loves it. I don’t add milk and sugar to my tea usually. I found that if I used a lower temp and shorter time, this one was pretty nice, and my friend who loves brosk and malty tea liked it and didn’t find it too strong for her. Not a repurchase for me and if I remember correctly, I gave the rest to her.
