Picked March 2014
Dry Leaf: black and wiry
very aromatic: dried berries, cranberries, very light smoke, sweat, medium roast coffee, medium dark chocolate,
Wet Leaf not as aromatic. More earthy, foresty with a very distant campfire.
liquor more chocolate and malt on first infusion
sweet potato
sadly, later infusions don’t reveal much further. certainly a fine tea, but lacked mid-palate to back up its initial aromas
low astringency, medium body
It’s listed as an easy-drinking tea, which I would certainly agree with. It’s good, but not really worth the price
