Gifted this tea to a mate who's into both teas and whiskies. He was blown away by the rich smokiness. It's a winner!
Tried brewing this in a Gaiwan and wow, the smoky aroma was amplified in such a fantastic way. It’s an experience every tea enthusiast should have!
When I think tea I often think of floral, fruity and even pantry spice flavours. This is such an exception to that! It reminding me of smoked beef jerky. As far as tea goes this is an umami bomb!
