“So Darjeeling teas for some reason are just not my cup of tea and unfortunately that is also the case with this one here. So this will be either for swaps or given to a friend/family member.” Read full tasting note

Company description not available.
I tasted this before I read up on it, and I wouldn’t have tagged it as a Darjeeling. My groggy, caffeine-starved brain (stormed overnight; no power this morning till we’d been up about an hour) classified it as “watery Assam with some really nice dark, sweet notes.” However, it was enjoyable, and I’ve got the basket of leaves on standby to doctor up with something a little stronger.
Sipdown (258)
K is for…Kanchanjangha Black
I really need to say thank you to Mastress Alita because her alphabet sipdown challenge has done wonders for my sipdowns!! I think I am at 28 empties for the month already. Plus, it makes figuring out instagram content for the Sororitea Sisters blog so simple. Thank you Mastress Alita!!!
Also thank you Sil for this “K” tea. It is one of 3 K teas I have and so its nice to have some variety. This is the only caffeinated one in the mix.
Tasting it now, it’s an okay tea. Nothing particularly interesting about it. It’s a sort of standard darjeeling profile – a little on the greener side though not metallic at all. Smooth. A touch vegetal/floral. Fine. Meh. Still always fun to try new things though!
