The dry leaf is really attractive and smells wonderful.
I made my cup of tea by steeping 2 teaspoons of tea in a cup of near boiling water for about 4 minutes.
I am enjoying this cup of tea, but to me the flavoring is very weak. I’m not really sure that I taste banana or walnuts. The black tea is excellent. So smooth and no bitterness or astringency. The aftertaste is short and clean, with maybe a hint of the walnut? There is a slightly sour, slightly fruity taste that I think must be the banana, but it really isn’t terribly distinct for me. Maybe it’s the taste of a slightly green banana? I’m not sure. I find the flavoring very subtle, more so than I typically prefer.
