This is a strong, interesting tea at a good price-point. Last year, it was very green, aggressive and bitter. This year it’s mellowed somewhat into a lower, thicker, but still powerful and bitter tea. I’d say that it has notes of wet, dark straw, fermenting fruit, and sweet tobacco. As you can probably guess, this tea may not be for everyone, but I find the flavor profile outlined above to be to my tastes. It is enduring, while being both savory and sweet. I can certainly see it continuing to age very well.
