The tea of the morning. The first thing I noticed about this tea is the slight smokiness and he more savory feel to it, than the East Frisian I have been drinking for the last few days. This is a combination of Assam + Keemun. This is smooth, more so than I would have thought. I am getting very little astringency surprisingly. After a few sips the cocoa notes from the keemun kick in and the Assam rounds out the flavor with a tad hint of malt. This is good, but I don’t think this is my favorite breakfast blend form H&S.

I started drinking tea while on a 4 month long cycling trip through South America. It seemed to always be a great way to warm up when I was cold and it was always available everywhere. Mate was the big tea of choice down there and it was also a great way to get to know people. When I returned home, my sister introduced me to Teavana and this launched me into the realm of loose leaf tea.
