This is at medium strength for a black tea and I’m ok with that because it’s incredibly smooth yet flavorful. I can pick up natural fruity notes – maybe like wild berries, almost – Raspberry or blackberry or maybe even currants. But it’s NOT Tangy. It’s smooth! YUM! This is delightful!

I just ordered this tonight and can’t wait to try it. Love anytime teas, and the price is AWESOME!
One thing I love about Upton is I feel they strive to give their customers quality regardless of price.

This is a really smooth black. I can’t say as it’s my favourite kind of taste from a black but this could easily be a staple in my cupboard for those of my friends who like black tea to be straight and “boring” without any flavour nuances. I like the boldness of this one and the lack of stringency on the tongue.

Backlog:

Thank you TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this tea. It was delicious.

It is a very flavorful, smooth tea. Not heavy … it has a medium body but even so, it is very flavorful. And there is a certain robustness to it, even though it’s not a particularly heavy tea. I like the balance.

A distant smoky note to this tea. Hints of wood and earth. No bitterness, and next to no astringency. A really enjoyable cuppa.

I picked this rather inexpensive ($8.00/250g) CTC mostly based on TeaEqualsBliss’s review. Let me quickly say I’m glad I did.

This is a smooth, mild-med. bodied black tea. I’ll confess that based on the bag aroma I expected it to be a little bolder, but I’m glad it wasn’t, as this is a great afternoon/evening cup of tea.

No milk or sugar added, this was a really satisfying cup.

PS – If anyone wants generous samples of this, please email me. I’d be happy to share.
