I had a hard time figuring out why I still had Sil’s sample, but it’s because I ordered a black tea sample pack and gave my brother the unopened ones and kept this one. Go me?
I added 1/4 tsp maple sugar to this, because it smelled like a tea that would be good with a touch of maple.
While this tea is nice, I still prefer the keemun. Which keemun specifically? IDK, since I still have 3 or 4 varieties waiting for me to sample. This tea is a little sharp for me, which is interesting. This smells sweet, like honey and sweet potato and hard caramel candies, but it doesn’t taste that way due to the sharpness. I think I’m expecting a sweeter, more mellow flavour.
Thank you for sharing, Sil. :)

As it cools I like it more, but I’m still glad I didn’t order a large amount. :) Maybe I’ll put all I have left into my brother’s bag.
lol
the keemun in my cupboard is my fav from teavivre and i prefer it over this one, though i do like this one too
This isn’t a bad tea, it’s just not to my taste. I think my brother liked it, though, so it’s going to him. Actually, how many of my so-so black teas might I be able to unload on him? ;)
hahahahaha
