I know I reviewed this about a month ago, but it has been added to the website so I thought I’d review it again.
Besides, I love this tea and any excuse to drink it . . .
This tea has a wonderful combination of flavors that might not seem like they go together necessarily, but they work very nicely. It starts with a black tea base that’s a combination of several different teas: Assam, Yunnan, Ceylon, Nilgiri & Vietnamese black teas. It’s a smooth base that’s not too aggressive, but it’s solid enough to support the flavors of the cup without being overpowered by them.
I love this tea. It’s definitely one of my favorite blends that I’ve yet to create, and I like to think it’s a fitting tribute to its namesake.
