A sample from Dinosara.

Sadly, this assam isn’t to my taste at all. It’s a little dusty, a little weak, somewhat malty. It doesn’t have much of that unique bright ‘assam’ flavour, although it is still identifiable. It feels like it’s hiding under the blankets. The ones in the cupboard that have been there for months and need a good wash before they’re put on the bed.

I prefer my assams to be bright and malty. Different than this. More than this. Yet still somewhat similar.

Thank you for sharing, Dinosara. It’s not one I’ll be picking up in the future. :)
