On the chocolate-tobacco-wood-fruit black tea flavor continuum, this tea fell solidly in the middle, with perhaps a slight preference for the chocolate/tobacco side of things. While I love each of these flavors independently, some how, together, they all got muddled up. I’ll try brewing a little more lightly next time to see if I can un-muddy the whole situation.
After the first few sips, I put the rest of the pot over ice, which had a gentling effect – but still didn’t clarify what this tea was trying to be.
