Mambo from Adagio Teas
88

This is my first time trying Mambo, but I generally like Chinese black teas (but not others- typically). I was expecting a more complex flavor. Nonetheless, it is a nice tea. It is a little smoky, fairly robust, and somewhat earthy. Not smoky like lapsang souchong, or earthy like a puerh. The flavors are much less overt than that. I will enjoy my sample tin, but will probably skip this and re-order a keemun instead.

Bio

I started drinking loose tea a few years ago. I gravitate towards green teas and herbal concoctions, but I’ll try anything. I’m not a huge fan of tea bags, except for a few particular kinds. Besides tea, I’m into outdoorsy things like hiking, camping, kayaking and climbing. I work in a climbing gym, which is pretty awesome. I’m waiting for the day that I can live in the mountains.
