This sample i got from ifjuly loong time ago. I dunno why i didnt try it.
Today I decided to run side by side with Golden Monkey by H&S
This tea is lovely. Sweet, flavorful and simply nice. Rich with sweet potatoes and malt but not heavy.
H&S version is heartier, maltier and earthier. its very rich cup but today I think it was too rich for me. And earth flavor distracted me for some reason. some peppery notes emerged as it cooled at the end of the sip.
i resteeped both teas at@5min. Meh. Didnt care for either. Kinda flat and boring.
Im glad i finally tasted both, long overdue.
Thank you ifjuly for the awesome samples you sent me. Still havent finished your endless box ;-)
