Tea of the morning here. I was at David’s yesterday and I felt like I needed another breakfast tea, so I rather optimistically bought a 4 oz. tin of this without trying it first.
Directions say to steep for 4 -5 minutes so I decided to do mine for 5 minutes. Yuck! I definitely think this is too strong for me, very brisk, bitter in the finish and too assertive in general. Normally I like assams so I have to believe it’s the ceylon doing this, or perhaps 5 minutes is just too long of a steeping time. I’ll report back after trying it at 3 minutes sometime but right now I’m just wondering if they’ll let me exchange this. Icky.
At least it seems to be waking me up…
