This was a huge miss for me. I had to make this one twice just as I did with Boston because I thought I had over steeped it. But again, just like Boston, turns out it tastes the same when I follow the brewing instructions perfectly.
This didn’t smell like chocolate or hazelnut nor did it taste like either of those things. It just tastes like a black tea that I don’t enjoy. The base tastes the same as the base in Boston as well. Actually, I’m finding that all of the Harney black bases taste quite similar and I’m not a fan.

I like these black tea blends from Harney & Sons, but I drink all of them brewed very strong and served with cream, which seems to bring out the nuances of the flavoring. I agree that the base is the same in most of them, so if one does not like the base, then the whole series may seem off!
