Robert Fortune was the James Bond of the tea trade: a 19th century botanist who stole tea secrets from the Chinese. He was responsible for bringing Chinese tea-producing techniques to India. Whittard have tracked Fortune’s travels with a blend of teas and, in the spirit of espionage, numbered the blend 57 – reached by adding up the numbers in Robert Fortunes date of birth, 16.11.1812!
Company description not available.
Dried aroma is a “standard” black tea smell; malty, a little fruity, with tiny hints of tobacco. Once steeped these notes develop an additional smoky hint! The actual flavour is beautiful; malt, a subtle smokiness, that’s easy to miss in the first few sips, and what I can only describe as a puerh likeness. These deep, peaty notes hint at the dark and mysterious past the blend is associated with! It’s a warming cuppa, and the subtle smokiness should ease the transition from warm to cool days.
