June Prompt: a tea with oceanic notes
This tea was a huge surprise for me. I was not wild about the green version but this one is really enjoyable. Ashman and I had it for breakfast and he is rather picky about his black teas. Darjeeling is so different, though. And the salted cherry leaf is what lends the oceanic flavor.
My gosh this is a good tea. The pale color in the cup could fool you into thinking this wasn’t a black tea, but it is so flavorful and has a lot of presence. Breakfast on the patio in spite of slightly higher temps and humidity, because very soon it will be miserable 24/7 out there and we want to enjoy it now.
Perfect briskness to go with our sweet breakfast, and smooth, too. A gift from Superanna, of course.
