Sipdown prompt: A tea that energizes you — not a sipdown yet.

I have inherited a few teas from my brother who used have them in the office; but as he stays more at home than in the office, he decided to give me them. Afterall, it was me, who bought him this box called Colours of Ceylon and this is one of the teas there.

I don’t know if it is the age (I think it could be 2 years old, maybe even more!), or it was like this even fresh… but honestly from two sessions with this tea I can say that the strongest note is Ceylon tea base. And in quite a good way — very robust and a little nutty. On the other hand, chai flavours are quite weak, I think most noticeable were spice anise and cloves; while ginger wasn’t fiery nor spicy at all. But I had bits of it in my strainer for sure!

Though spices are weak, I was happy with this tea and its high caffeine content for sure… as it woke me up well. And tea base is fine as well, with little astringency and no bitterness.
