Method: 2 tsp, 8 oz, 195 degrees, 4 minutes, Forlife mug strainer & Dr. Who mug
Dry Leaf Aroma: fruit, floral, a little hint of seaweed
Brewing Aroma: sweetness and raisins, other non-specific fruit
Flavor: Yum. This has a lightly fruity taste, and is mildly sweet. This one made me smile. It has a tiny tinge of astringency, nothing drastic, which became more noticeable as it cooled. This also reminded me a little of tobacco. But I think that tobacco smells like raisins, so maybe that’s where it came from. This one was a winner for me!!!!
