Daniil drank Kenyan Tinderet by DAVIDsTEA

Dry leaves look really cool and awesome. Smell is gentle, sort of like light golden monkey. I got a cup of it, so maybe it’s due to paper teabag, but I find it rather light tea or maybe I am just used to stronger/more flavorful blacks. However, this tea has an amazing long aftertaste, I think it would be a great morning tea. Both smell and especially a taste has an interesting note to it, something like allspice or perhaps cardamon, its subtle.

I was always a huge fan of teas but my tastes changed constantly. Lately I am on the path of discovering Chinese teas, but not limiting myself to that. I am, however, favoring straight teas at this point.

I love pu-erh, oolongs are always a treat, learning about greens is delicious, absolutely neutral towards rooibos or herbals and black is always a yes. Incidentally any combination of the above is ok in a blended tea, which I like to have time to time.

« The first cup kisses away my thirst,
and my loneliness is quelled by the second.
The third gives insight worthy of ancient scrolls,
and the fourth exiles my troubles.
My body becomes lighter with the fifth,
and the sixth sends word from immortals.
But the seventh—oh the seventh cup—
if I drink you, a wind will hurry my wings
toward the sacred island. »
