Handmade Black Tea,
November 2018 harvest
First sip seems like
a basic, good black tea, then comes remembrances of my grandfathers pipe smoke.
It was not really smokey just something in my remembrance. Not even cherry like
my grandfather’s tobacco, but the fragrance of walks with him in the orchard,
the humus of the spongy ground and an after taste of citrus at the back of the
throat. Thinking the citrus was touched with a hint of wildness, a honey like
flavor. It think it is very pretty for tea too.
This tea was a treat from the Heritage Tea Company in Assam, India.
Thanks Rajen and June Barauh!
This was a surprise, handed to me this summer at TeaFestPDX by Elyse Petersen of Tealet.
Hoping we get a chance to meet next year when I fly off to India.
