Black Tea by Upton Tea Imports
The Times Cook (The Times, London) has suggested this insightful blend of Ceylon teas from the Nuwara Eliya, Kandy and Dimbula regions. An exemplary Ceylon experience.
Origin:
Sri Lanka
At first sip – when really hot – just a minute after infusing – this tasted a little skunky. That taste faded, thankfully.
There are sweet, sour, and woodsy notes. Just when I’m thinking “Ceylon” it sort of tastes a little like Darjeeling.
The aftertaste is sort of woodsy, too.
Alright but not my fave, really.
Drinkable, tho!
When I don’t know what tea others might like, or I can’t decide what I want, this is my go-to tea. It is a good all-round pleasant tea. Nice colour and wonderful aroma.
A blend of select Ceylon teas. An earthy/ tobaccoey scent, with some corn silk and floral thrown in. A light citrussy tea, with some earth notes to ground it. Very pleasant
