Ceylon High Mountain

This ‘brews up’ extremely dark brown. This is VERY BOLD and gives you a nice swift kick in the butt for your midday blah’s!!! It’s semi-malty and (again) bold and flavorful!

This is a delicious Ceylon – smooth and rich and quite brisk for a Ceylon. It has an almost “creamy” chewy flavor to it… somewhat malty but not quite as malty as a typical Assam.

Very nice indeed.

This brews up dark but not with a strong scent, surprisingly. The scent that is there is slightly malty with a light and slightly spicy “dark tea smell”. Pleasant.

The taste is dark on the front of the tongue with a sense of honey in the top of the mouth when swallowing. It has a bit of bitterness around the sides and under the tongue, but not unpleasantly so. There’s a pleasant burnt taste in the middle of the tongue as the tea starts to cool.

I was worried that a black tea would seem to strong after I’ve been drinking so many whites lately, but not at all. While this isn’t Awesome, it is Good. I’d drink it again, and will, but wouldn’t buy it.

This is a rich smokey flavor that you will enjoy if you like a strong tea. Love this!
