A malty, slightly smoky tea with hints of cocoa (presumably from the Keemun). Nice, flavorful, and round but a bit on the brisk side for me at a 4-minute steep. I’m going to reduce to 3.5 or 3 minutes and see if it’s more to my palate.
Flavors: Cocoa, Malt, Smoke
Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C

I havent had this one in many years. I ought to try it again and see how much how tastes have changed. I liked it, but I orefer straight Keemun or a blend of all Chinese.
I’m still in my discovery phase of Chinese teas, but I could see Chinese blends being a bit more harmonious. I do think H&S is very good at blending and did a nice job getting these two to play together pretty well.
