The only place I could find this Assam on the Drink T website was in the Tea Lover’s Root Basket…

This is a unique Assam in that I can taste strong spice notes that I don’t typically experience with other Assam teas. It has a nice, baked quality as well as the malty characteristic that I expect from an Assam… but this one has something more to it that reminds me slightly of a Keemun tea – a spice note and a wine-like note. It has a full-bodied flavor but it is a bit lighter than a typical Assam.

It’s very intriguing.

I brewed the last that I had of this tea a bit ago. Deliciously malty. I decided that I hadn’t had enough chocolate yet today, so I did add a splash of the Dark Chocolate Breve Creme to this… it is good as a chocolate-y creamy tea, but I think I actually like this better without the addition.

A very good tea, sorry to see this one go. But… I think I have plenty of tea to keep me occupied!

Enjoying a cup of this before I need to get out there and run some errands. It definitely has some get up and go to it! I really like this Assam. It has a very pleasant character. I just wrote a review for it for the SororiTEA Sister’s Blog… watch for it!
