This is a really nice, subtle FF Darjeeling. It has a really crisp taste, but isn’t too heavy on the tannins. The first sip is pleasantly fruity with a nice sweet aroma. There’s no one overpowering fruit taste, but just sort of a pleasant sweetness to counter the sharper tannic mouthfeel.
Flavors: Citrus, Fruity, Tannin
I’m a 24-year old grad student who’s been drinking tea since I was itty bitty and having tea parties with my grandmother. Got serious about it my freshman year of college and have been exploring the wide world of loose-leaf ever since!
I like pretty much anything, really, except for blends that are super heavy on the sugar. The only thing I’ve ever truly hated was Teavana’s JavaVana Maté. As Scary Terry so famously said, these halves don’t belong together.
My ratings are pretty arbitrary. Anything above an 80 I like enough that I’d probably buy it again at some point after I run out; anything above 90 basically gets an A. Anything under 70 and I probably didn’t like it too much.
