TTB Tea. It’s been stormy one minute and sunny the next. An odd day. But nice. I’m feeling in the mood for black teas today. So, trying this one now. Repacking it into a different bag.
Dry Laf: Dusty. Medium-sized broken leaf. With golden fuzz.
Dry Aroma: None. Lost to the whims of the plastic bag
Liquor aroma: Woody. Slightly creamy. A bit of wheat bread.
Flavor: Cedar. Resin. Laquer. Decomposing leaves.
Mouth feel: Somewhat astringent. But not unappealingly so. Filling and smooth

I agree that some tea stores and shops need a lesson in proper tea packing. But the reality is that most consumers will toss their teabags and boxes into the pantry next to their spices where everything gets uncontrolled passive blending over time. I was recently puzzled why my friends iced herbal tea tasted of garlic… yup, the chaos of odors in her fridge/freezer gave her garlic-flavored ice cubes. What a mess. But such is life.
