This tea is not bad and not great. It falls into the category of teas I am not unhappy I bought, considering what I paid, but would probably not buy again. That being said there are several competing notes of flavor. One is sweet, not sure what to call it. Another is more of a savory note, I am also not sure what to call it. Its the third note I don’t like. It is also mildly sour. This is not prevalent but it is distracting. It is not a strong flavor. Next time I will brew this at 175 degrees and see what I get.

I brewed this once in a 18oz teapot with 190 degree water and 4 tsp leaf for 3 min.

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 3 min, 0 sec 4 tsp 18 OZ / 532 ML

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
