This is a really nice comfort tea, I’ve enjoyed it on every occasion and it never demanded too much attention from me despite being quite complex and full bodied.
When dry, its aroma reminds me of curry leaves, fenugreek seeds, green wood, and Chinese leek. Then, while brewing, I can smell hints of maple syrup, eucalyptus, and yeast.
The liquor is oily, thick, active and yet quite smooth. It tastes quite nutty and fragrant at first, more sweet and herbaceous later on. There is a lasting numbing sensation coupled with a spicy aftertaste and notes of hops, honey, sugarcane, coconut water
I don’t think I’ve ever come across a Darjeeling tea that is as warming in the body as this one – truly one of the impressive examples of Himalayan teas.
