Review of Strong Lemon (Nr. 152)

Half-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of a blend of black tea leaves and small pieces of dried lemon and lemon peel. Pours slightly hazy copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Intense aroma of lemon, with notes of black tea. Bitter flavour of black tea leaves, with intense but not aggressive notes of lemon. Astringent palate of black tea and a pronounced aftertaste of lemon, finishing on a sweetish, creamy note. A well-balanced and simple drink. I was quite cautious buying this tea, as the lemon teas I remember to have drunk in my youth were of rather inferior quality and always in teabags. This one, fortunately, is nothing like it. A decent, enjoyable and recommendable tea.
