Review

Amount of Tea: 7 Grams
Brewing Vessel: Ceramic Teapot
Type of Water: Bottled Water (Reverse Osmosis)
Rinse Time: 10 Seconds – 10 Seconds
Steep Time: 15 Seconds – 20 Seconds – 25 Seconds

Mineral forward, somewhat watery, malty-sweet black tea flavor.

It tastes of roasted malt, light cream, dark wood, brown sugar, and a dates.

Sweet, yet not overly complex.

Reasonable body and texture.

Flavor notes: Malt, cream, dark wood, brown sugar, and dates.

I am enjoying this tea with a few Royal Dansk butter cookies and they pair nicely together, as the tea cuts through the sweet and buttery flavor of the cookies.
