The leaves are small and tightly twisted/rolled and give off quite a smokey aroma, which dissapates as the tea brews. It does so even more in the taste, which is fairly light, smooth, creamy and just a wee bit smokey. There are hints of cocoa and roasted vegetables. It really is an excellent tea, but on the expensive side. I probably shouldn't quibble, as it is organic, hand picked and hand processed. I might even buy more than a sample, it is so good.
