I placed an online order with Ajiri a few years ago, and then saw this black tea with ginger version at H-E-B so I started with a box, and went back for another, and another. I also saw the loose leaf black tea version at Happy Lucky’s and bought some of it. I much prefer the added ginger, and I can let this brew without it getting bitter, so it makes an excellent travel tea. I could stand more ginger, but it is very well balanced as it is.
Flavors: Ginger
I tried several Ajiri teas at the NYC Coffee & Tea Festival this year. This was one of them. I initially expected that I would end up choosing this blend, but it turned out to be my least favorite. The ginger flavor clearly comes from real ginger in the blend. It’s strong, but not overwhelming. The malty base tea holds its own. However, the flavors of the ginger and base tea just didn’t quite mesh for me. Ginger good. Base tea good. But they just didn’t play together at all. It’s like the flavor of each was hanging out in its own corner and refusing to interact. Possibly a shorter or longer steep time would fix this. Maybe I’ll get a box next year to play around with!
Flavors: Ginger, Malt
