I assume I have same pouch as derk, from White Antlers; thank you both. Drowning in tea right now (and Advent Calendar is coming to me as well).
The aroma is promising. I get raspberry (essence) and some chocolate.
I took two teaspoons for my bigger volume (400 ml). Steeped for 4 minutes maximum.
But though the result IS nice, though not what I have been expecting. I blame the age a bit maybe? It wasn’t chocolatey much. I have expected more bold base, but it was fine. It just wasn’t what I have been expecting. The raspberry was… maybe kind of artificial, but somehow enjoyable. Kind of juicy. Overall, I had feeling of some cake-flavour a bit or something.

I definitely have to check out this company. They make me think it Simpson & Vail, but the prices are a bit high to justify for me right now.
This is not old tea, Martin. It’s just not very well done. : (
That surprises me White Antlers, as others tend to like it, but me and derk didn’t had the chocolatey notes.
uh oh. this means I should be drinking my sample sooner. I really like this one.
