I don’t think I’ve ever had a tea from Meghalaya, but the leaf and dry scent seemed most similar to a Darjeeling or Nepalese black tea to me. The steeped color is quite light and somewhat golden.
I like it more than I thought I would, since I’m not a big fan of the aforementioned types of tea. This is light and airy, but not overtly floral and harsh like some Darjeelings can be. It’s smooth and a bit creamy in texture, with a mellow oat and rye bread flavor. Definitely getting some hints of fruit, perhaps stonefruit with a slight tang. There’s a subtle cannabis note in the finish, but not enough to steer me away.
It’s a nice soft yet comforting tea, just not something I would personally reach for, plus the price is a bit high for me.
