1 Tasting Note

Open infuser with 4.5 grams of tea in a 350 ml mug. Steep 2-3 mins. Milk to taste.
Liquor colour bright orange. Taste – still fresh, slight astringency, good flavour. Not quite the green apple tea aroma it originally had but maturing well. This is a good cup of tea from the factory that consistently gets highest prices on the Mombasa Auction. Well done Gisovu!
