I really want to go camping…
Method: 1.5 tsp @ 208 degrees for 3 minutes in 8 oz., French Press
Dry Leaf Aroma: Smoke, Ginger Ale, and Cream Ale. Not ginger or cream. Specifically ginger ale and cream ale. Crazy!
Brewing Aroma: The smoke calmed way down. I can smell the black tea and a very subtle sweetness.
Flavor: Smoke & Spice, with a hint of sweetness. I didn’t get any chocolate from the scents or flavors, but I still enjoyed this tea very much. The smoke wasn’t out of control, though it definitely feels like making s’mores at a campfire. There was a nice zing to this. I would have sworn it was ginger, instead of cinnamon, but I guess I would be wrong. I saw a recommendation to oversteep this. I’ll try that next!
