This has a lot of woodsmoke/cigar tobacco in the aroma and the flavor. There is a something else in there too, some woody and savory notes, enough so that I began to wonder if I was drinking some kind of sausage beverage and not a tea (lol). But this black dragon is all about the smoke, which is something that I enjoy from time to time. It would be interesting to try blending this with another tea to tone it down a little. Upton sells this at an attractive price, and it appears to be one of their staples.
