Nilgiri BOP

Black Tea by Upton Tea Imports

Located in southern India, Nilgiri produces teas similar to those of Ceylon, yet with a distinctive character. This British style Nilgiri produces a flavorful cup. Excellent with milk.

Drank it black – steeped for 4 minutes – no sugar. Pleasant slight astringency, almost smoky flavour but far from being as pronounced as my usual favourite – Russian Caravan (or Lapsang! ) Straw colour. A refreshing drink.

I blew through this stuff—just drank my last this morning. They aren’t kidding about it taking milk well, it’s a really nice morning cuppa.
