Brewed, this smells strongly of Assam. The taste is incredibly flavourful—Assam on the first note, strong but not sharp, followed by a definite Keemun taste. I’m not immediately getting any Ceylon, but it might just be the Ceylon that’s tying the two together and toning down the Assam. Background-player.
It’s cooling now, and I think I’m getting a bit of the Ceylon.
I’d also like to point out that mine (and all, I assume) came with a card inside the box that reads: “For best results, serve others first.” Sadly, I had no one to share with, otherwise I would have.

Hello and thanks for the review AJ. Curious where you found Smith? The teamakers.
I can usually find them in any local Chapters (Canadian book company), but they are ridiculously overpriced there. I found this one at Eden West Fine Foods and Gifts.
