From Mariage Frères

An outstanding harvest from this very large estate in Balangoda district, to the south of Dimbula.

Its long, fine leaves produce a highly aromatic tea with remarkably fruity taste.

This renowned Orange Pekoe is perfect for five o’clock tea.

This is a great cup of coffee one might say. So dark …

However,everything started with a pretty long Ceylon tea leaf . the smell is honey , heady. It suggests a tasty breakfast.

Well, once infused this beautiful leaf turns out to be a cut leaf. awww.

The taste is fruity and honey dew but actually I get a hint of bitterness at the very end of the sip. I think 4 minutes were a bit too much for the infusion of this tea but I stupidly thought it was a whole leaf tea. So I need to repeat the experience tomorrow with a 2 or 3 minutes steeping, it should be really much better.

This tea is very pleasant, unpretentious. It’s not a big tea but it is very correct for € 5.50/ 100 grams.
