The smell is quite malty and honey like with some hints of cardamon. The maltiness is even more present in the taste, which is quite sweet. There are notes of citrus peel, resin and molasses on top of the malty base. The mouthfeel is very soft and only a little astringent in the finish and aftertaste. As far as Assam teas go, this is a very good one I reckon, albeit nothing special or surprising.

Flavors: Astringent, Cardamom, Citrus Zest, Honey, Malt, Molasses, Resin, Sweet

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
