Backlog:

Hi Everyone … I know it’s been a long time since I’ve posted, so over the next few days I’ll be backlogging some of the teas that I’ve been drinking, but not all of them.

This is really a remarkable Keemun, I’ve had it for a little while in my stash, but as the sample was sealed, it managed to hold up very well. It is a very rich, sweet, slightly smoky and even a little malty. A thick, really satisfying tea.

So unique!

Slightly smoky but moreso juicy and almost fruity notes pop in and out along with being toasty and malty! Oh!!!! I really like this one, too! I has been an AWESOME TEA DAY!

I sipped down the last of this today. I enjoyed the slightly smokey notes, its bold “I’m here” presence, and its warming cup. The afternoon went by more quickly accompanied by this pleasing keen. The dry leaves had a particularly wirey appearance.
