One litre pot at home, made of tiny leaves in a variety of colours, from dark yellow, through greens and browns, to black. Pours clear lightish copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of black tea - not malty but rather more like a mixture of a Darjeeling and an Oolong. Bitter, leafy flavour, with mild grassy hints. Astringent palate of black tea. A decent, well-balanced and rather tender black tea. I prefer stronger varieties, though, like Assam or Yunnan. Fair price (38 DKK per 100 g).
