Darjeeling Breakfast Black Tea
A strong morning cup that is brisk with notes of wood and fruit rind.
description
This is not a tea for those with a light palate. The flavors in it are strong and tannic. It helps for a quick pick-me-up on slow mornings. Also enjoyed with honey and lemon rather than milk and sweetner.
