I’m all out of my favorite teas, and finally got the order from Verdant in with some samples :)
This one was the first one up. The dry leaves smell fantastic, chocolaty and toasty. The first brew is full of Honey and rock sugar notes. Its very balanced, nice color, no bitterness or astringency even when brewed strong. Its a nice tea, not overly complicated, I can see myself drinking on daily basis.
Flavors: Burnt Sugar, Dates, Honey, Sweet Potatoes
My favorites are the first flushes-most of them are flavorful. I also order Darjeeling’s from silvertipstea and Barney
