tasting notes

• 1.5 tsp + 200 mL boiling water + 5 min.
  • BAD. the child of ceylon and prince of Wales blend who inherited their worst traits. weak, anemic taste with a light broth. has an unpleasant aftertaste: like ceylon, but duller, more floral, and less refreshing.
  • with sugar: sweetened, but otherwise no difference.
  • with milk and sugar: maltier flavor peaks out. aftertaste mellows.
  • rec: increase tea amount to 2-3 tsp.
