Oh wow! This tea has gotten very rave reviews and I was worried that I would be disappointed, but there was no need to be! This tea lives up to every rave review.
It smells divine, it’s hard to describe. Fruity and honey.
The leaves are beautiful and long.
The taste is delicious. Sweet waffle cones and a slight fruity note, but I am not sure that I would have said raisin. In later steeps, I get slight caramel notes.
This tea is so different than all other blacks. I have a feeling this one is going to be restocked frequently in my cupboard.

Lol, I’m glad I inspired you to drink this!
Yes Tigress, it was a very good middle of the night cuppa, but sadly, it was also a sipdown:-(
The good news is I haven’t ordered any tea in a very long time, and I will restock on black friday! Can’t wait :-)
Black Friday is going to be crazy this year! Still working out the details but our giveaway prize this year will be a porcelain tea jar (last year was the gaiwan ;) ) and one of the days we are doing a bonus leafhopper tea and “I Love Leafhopers” magnet. I fully expect to be in the office 24/7 for the entire week.
Awww, can’t wait, thanks for the heads up Stacy! You know, I’ve been drinking your magic potions all summer long, can’t wait to restock on my favourites! (sounds like you’ll need to gulp down gallons of strong highly caffeinated tea in order to go through it all!!)
I’m very excited about our Black Friday weekend! No problem, I like to spill a little detail. Next week we should have the complete details worked out ahead of time so that people can plan their attack. Oh yes, will be drinking tons of black tea and perhaps a few Kenyan CTCs. They really get me going.
Yay! Black Friday, can’t wait to see what the sales are! I need larger quantities of my favs!
tigress_al-The sales should be pretty awesome (at least I hope they seem awesome). :)
