Review of Singbulli, Darjeeling Black Tea, First Flush 2014

Very smooth, fresh tea. I definitely like the lighter, non-bitter taste of Darjeelings compared against regular black teas. The first cup of this one was particularly good, while the second one was slightly weaker in flavor. Still, I enjoyed the very lightly floral taste, which contributed a pleasant complexity to the cup.
I tried it again, this time with a bit of milk. They blend well together, but it's easy for the milk to overpower the delicate tea flavor. If you like tea with milk, I would suggest going easy on the amount of milk. As long as you keep this is mind, it makes a delicious latte.
