Ah, it’s been a long time since I’ve made a proper tasting note here, isn’t it? Hopefully things will get more settled town toward the end of the year, and I’ll be able to take it slow with a cup of tea more often.
I had this yesterday at Peet’s, where I was happy to see that they had a drawer of many loose leaf and sachet tea options. I think I let my cup oversteep a bit while working on something. While some subtleties may have been lost, it was still a good, solid malty black tea. The malt quality really announces itself with every sip. It’s very rich and robust, and a good pick-me-up on an uncommonly cool afternoon (which Southern California has really needed!)
