smells strongly cinnamony and herbal, but the taste is not as strong, good portion of a tea flavor.

Very light, not acidic or tart at all, very smooth. Almost doesn’t taste like “regular” tea.
A very nice alternative tea.

Mild green tea. Smooth, but nothing too exceptional, just a good green tea. Note this is a full-leaf tea, makes it a little challenging to get a “teaspoonful”, and get it all wetted. Tends to float on the top.

Middle if the road Lapsang Souchoung. Maybe a little too smoky; I think I prefer the Upton Lapsang. But this is not bad.

pretty good but definitely not the mokalbari I have been searching for ever since I had some in China 7 years ago that was the best tea I ever had.
Good, “generic” tea.

A touch lighter than their Lapsang Souchon, its OK, but close enough as to be the same for me. Now I really Like Lapsang Souchong, so that’s a good thing.
