Overview
Best pick • solid black choice from Unknown origin
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
This unique Assam blend steeps a dark ruby-amber liquor with pronounced sweet fruity notes in both the brisk aroma and the full-bodied cup. With herbaceous nuances and toasty hints, this great self-drinker will accommodate a splash of milk, if desired. The dry finish lingers with hints of pear and dried fruit. A great value.
