I’m trying to use up all those little samples I’ve got cluttering up my cupboard so I dug this one out. It’s quite a lovely Assam, full-bodied and malty but without the harshness that some other Assams can take on. Actually it’s got an interesting sweet note that I noticed after the tea had a chance to cool off a bit. Really liking this one – I might buy some more whenever I get a chance to go back to Granville Island.
Gingia 2nd Flush
Black Tea by Granville Island Tea Co
An exceptional black tea from the Bishnauth district of Assam, in northern India. The second flush refers to the time of year (late June) the leaves are picked from the bush.
