MTW Formosa Keemun

Black Tea by Mark T. Wendell

This tea from the island of Formosa was one of Mr. Wendell’s personal favorites. Its long, silvery leaf gives an attractive appearance. He referred to it as “the burgundy of teas.” Its mellow brew is full-bodied with a superb bouquet.

This is really amazing! The leaves look like a cross between (what you would expect or assume from a) Gunpowder Green and a cloudy black. It’s a green-grey-er type black leaf. It has mellow black tea aromas and flavors and brews-up a lighter to light-medium brown. The flavor is incredibly juicy and extremely pleasant. It’s mouth watering and has hints of sweet-floral and natural fruity notes mixed in. This is delightful!

One of the better tasting black teas that is UNflavored but on the naturally lighter and mellower side of black tea offerings. Niiice! And YES…that’s NICE with 3 iii’s!

I almost forgot I had this one but am sure glad I found it yesterday! Backlogging! See previous notes…

Yes! It’s grand!

Awww yeah…see previous notes :)
