Another What-Cha tea! This black tea has twisty leaves that range from brown to gold. Just as the hot water was hitting them I got this aroma of spicy baked… something. Not spicy enough to be gingerbread, but like, maybe a sugar cookie with cinnamon on top? Once brewed, I smelled it again and was like “Oh, so when people talk about a sweet potato flavour in black tea, this must be what they mean!”. The flavour is malty and sweet potatoey with just a hint of cinnamon or nutmeg or something sweet and spicy. Yum.
