A relatively smooth black tea that I thought tasted better when brewed more strongly. One of the many samples TEAORB sent me, thank you!
Dry leaf, dark in appearance, slightly broken, with a gently curved shape, smells mild, pleasant but uninteresting: fruity and a little bit dusty.
The brewed cup smells sweet, soft, and fruity, but upon sipping it tastes more like a traditional Assam, with a pleasantly sharp edge. Quite a lot of bite, but never harsh. I very much enjoyed this one...it was easy to drink. As I drink the whole cup, a few notes of autumn leaves come out towards the end.
The second cup is hearty, warm, and mellow and smooth. It is much softer than the first and has a bready quality, with notes of spice.
Seemed a bit more caffeinated than some of the other teas TEAORB puts in the "Medium" caffeine category. I found this tea tasted better when brewed on the strong side. It can be a bit thin if not steeped long enough, but it doesn't get at all bitter, and only gets moderately astringent if steeped longer or using more leaf.

This tea tastes sort of bready and soapy at the same time, but in a good way. It's not too strong and not too astringent, which is good. It's a nice tea to have with bland foods because stronger foods would overpower the flavor of the tea. Overall this was a pretty decent tea, however, there are much cheaper tea that I really enjoy and would probably get over this one.
