This is an interesting tea that I’m not entirely sure about yet. At the suggested 5 minutes, I find this tea to be earthy with an aftertaste of baking chocolate. I still haven’t decided if the earthiness is good or off-putting, but it reminds me of an oolong, so it is in the good category for now. At 4 minutes, the tea is less earthy and more of a chocolate, sweet taste which is why I prefer this tea at 4 minutes. It is a pretty light tea but I found it could stand up to a small amount of milk as a breakfast tea and doesn’t need any sweetener. I think I like this tea, I’m just not sure how much yet. So far I’ve been able to get 2 infusions of of the leaves, I think they could go more though. My rating is tentative based on several factors which will determine my ultimate like or love for this tea.

I liked it a lot the first time I tried it and then the more I drank it, the less I liked it. Strange, huh?
I think my experience is becoming opposite of yours. I think I’m liking it a bit more each time I drink it. Which worries me a bit, I was hoping I could live without this tea since it isn’t exactly on the cheap end of prices.
