TM82: Himalayan TGFOP1 from Upton Tea Imports

Style: Black Tea – Region: Himalayas

73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5

I ordered this after Upton discontinued one of my favorite teas, the Himalayan BOP (TM20). I was expecting this tea to be similar to that one, but overall, it had less of the qualities that I liked in that tea, and was considerably more expensive (still a good value but not a steal the way that one was), so I am disap...

Himalayan BOP from Upton Tea Imports

Style: Black Tea – Region: Himalayas

88 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
