12 Tasting Notes

Fantastic full bodied Japanese black tea! My first Japanese black tea, ir was very unique. Very interesting and full notes. Closest thing might be a Jin Jun Mei or a high quality Yunnan pure bud.
One of my prized possessions, I would love to visit Chiyonoen again, to stock up.

Japanese black teas are so interesting, I find them somewhat bready and haylike, but they also sometimes remind me of Darjeeling with their aromatic qualities!

One of my most favourite back teas, and my absolute favourite Darjeeling! I have not tried many autumn Darjeelings, but this one is great.
Very interesting and unique full body notes and a sweet taste. Reminded me a bit of a Japanese black tea I tasted at a Japanese tea factory.

I usually get quite a few brews from this.
