Superb Black Tea from The Excellent Tea Company

Style: Black Tea – Region: Rwanda

53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 10th, 2014

Upon tasting this one, it quickly reminded me of a general black tea. Not bad, but not my preferred style. I pretty quickly decided to go ahead and add creamer, as I think that improves many of the less interesting black teas, and it certainly helped here.

I can't see the prices on the website, but others have menti...

Superb Black Tea from The Excellent Tea Company

Style: Black Tea – Region: Rwanda

50 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5

Super small tea particles in a cheapy-bag. Smells OK - a bit earthy - and definitely a black tea. Brewed up strong - but not inky. Not nearly as tannic as, say, Lipton. Drinkable but not a fave.

This tea isn't particularly notable to me, but it's good. There's a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste. I added cream and sugar.

The only tea I've ever tried from Rwanda: a humble teabag with finely-broken tea fannings.

Exceptionally strong and robust: this makes some Assam tea look weak! Good with milk and one of the few teas that I actually preferred this way. Brews a very dark blackish-brown cup, opaque, almost like black coffee. Yet le...
