From a variant of Yabukita, a popular Japanese cultivar, this organic black tea is surprisingly reminiscent of Chinese Keemun black tea with its deep chocolate and fruit notes and a long-lasting finish.

Advent Calendar Day 16
Ooo, this is nice! While I’ve definitely been enjoying trying out all the different flavored teas this month, a straight black tea will always be my favorite way to start the day. And this one is GOOD. The flavor is super rich and full-bodied, yet smooth with no bitterness or astringency. It’s very fruity, reminding me of raisins, but with a touch of dark chocolate in the aftertaste. This may be my favorite of the calendar so far!
Flavors: Dark Chocolate, Raisins
This tea is so rich and cozy, and I needed something comforting after this terrifying day. I’m still getting those chocolate and dried fruit notes, but there’s a touch of tobacco now as well.
I have enough for one more cup, and although I really enjoy this tea, I won’t be repurchasing. It was the Mansa Tea Club September offering, and it’s still only available for Tea Club members…but it’s $58/2oz. It’s good, but not that good.
Agreed, I can’t live without my Yuchi Wild Mountain Black!
Haven’t tried that one! Adding it to my wishlist. :)
I love this one too! I’ve been so impressed with the quality of Mansa’s selection.
I’ve never even heard of Mansa before, so thanks for introducing me to yet another new tea company!
