I'm having a hard time rating this tea. It smelled pretty bad to me, like burnt pine. I guess that's the smokiness. The flavor was nicely earthy and slightly chocolaty with the occasional subtle fruit note. I enjoyed the flavor, but hated the aroma. I always knew it was done brewing and would taste the way I liked it when it smelled like someone forced a jigsaw through a board of old wood as quickly as possible. The less offensive the smell, the more bland it tasted. I guess if the smell of charred wood doesn't bother you, this is a pretty good tea for the price, but I couldn't get past that.

Very interesting tea. It has a robust flavor that's hard to pin down in words. The dominant flavor is one that's savory and fruity at the same time. Perhaps akin to the flavor of sourdough bread? It tastes almost like a black tea, but without the bitterness that causes me to dislike most black teas. Of the tea I've tried, this one would be the best for people wanting to shift from coffee to tea. I don't see myself drinking this frequently, but it's not bad at all and it's very interesting. If you like black or breakfast teas, or if you're also a coffee drinker, this is one tea I suspect you'd like a lot.
