Entering this here as they don’t have it listed yet on their website. This is the GFOP loose leaf single estate Assam from Chota Tingrai tea estate by Mana Organics.
Holy cats but this is some malty awesomeness. The leaves are nothing special to look at but they are amazing to smell and taste. Wow is all I am capable of at the moment. 5 grams for 12 ounces of water at 205F for 3 minutes. No bitterness, not even a hint. However, as the liquor cools, a dryness sets in. Still not bitter, but not quenching. Need to try it iced next. But hot – I need to have this around all the time for sure.
Not rating as this is on Random but I’d be giving it 100 if it were on the actual tea listing.
you always find interesting teas from such random places. Some days i wish i lived in the US…SOME days…
Keep an eye on your mail, girl. :) Unfortunately, I didn’t have this before I sent it out, but there is another offering from Mana Organics in there.
