Steepster has been eating a bunch of my reviews submitted on mobile, which is a shame, because it’s so convenient to tap notes out while curled up in my armchair.
Anyway, this tea is supposed to be an Earl Grey reminiscent complex blend, but the fruit – black currant – scent overpowers everything else until you’re a few steeps in. I prefer what it becomes after a good deal of the flavorings wash off. Of course, this is exactly the kind of tea that everyone else always seems to adore, so I gave it away as a gift, along with a travel tea set, to my uncle. He likes tea, but his office only stocks green, which upsets his tummy. I’d been on the search for a good daily black or oolong on his behalf, and stumbled across mentions of this blend of both. Let’s hope it works out for him!
Flavors: Black Currant, Vanilla
