Nothing spectacular, but a good, easy-drinking black tea. Used water ~203 F as the bag recommends, and brewed in my 100mL gaiwan. There was some astringency, but not of the mouth-puckering variety, instead it was quite refreshing. The same way lemon water is slightly astringent, but refreshing. It did leave a bit of a dry feeling in the mouth a minute after you finish the cup. Finish was slightly sweet maltiness. I think next time I’ll try boiling water, which I usually use for black teas.
