Bonny Albo –
Malty, full-bodied, quite chocolaty with some added sweetener (I use stevia), smells divine – like a rich, warm leathery study complete with freshly baked cookies and a thick beer.
Which, I guess, is what many good Assams smell like, thus the draw.
I’ll admit I’ve drank a lot of Yunnan of late, so I was a bit surprised at how small the tea was. Again though, nothing out of the ordinary… just my foo-foo tea drinking habits.
I was given this tea in exchange for reviewing it, and I have to admit I’ll happily drink it all. There’s nothing that wowed me, but it’s also a really solid brew.
I normally steep all my blacks at 200F / just under boiling, and I find this really brought out the flavors in this (and the other teas I tested today).
The price is what stunned me – it’s inexpensive yet doesn’t taste like it. 3.99 pounds for 90g, or (about) $5 USD plus shipping.
Flavors: Chocolate, Leather, Malt
Lana –
I love a strong cuppa. And this Assam is not only strong but has chocolatey notes that come through eypecially when you add a splash of milk. I’d happily have this brew as my morning cuppa everyday!
