Review of East Frisian Leaf Blend
October 25th, 2020
Aroma | Flavor | Value | Total |
8 of 10 | 4 of 5 | 4 of 5 | 78 of 100 |
Excellent | Good | Good Value |
Half-litre pot at home, made from a blend of Assam leaves (I asked specifically how many different types there were but received no assistance on this point in my local outlet in Flensburg). Pours clear darkish copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear, malty and leafy aroma of Assam tea, with very mild floral hints. Bitter, leafy flavour with malty touches. Astringent palate with clear leafy notes and touches of malt. Well, whatever the blend is made of, it is well-balanced and tasty. I must admit I like this variety of tea a lot and my fondness for it grows with every review of it I write. This particular specimen is not very expensive on top of that (€5.50 per 100 g).
