Think you've tasted them all, or that they're all pretty much the same? Guess again! These astoundingly long full leaves hold a flavor that is remarkably smooth, sweet and creamy without anything added. I had to prop my fallen jaw up just to keep tea from spilling on the counter as I tasted my maiden cup! There is an amazing caramelization of sugars that took place in under a minute leaving me with a virtual creme brûlée with mild hints of cassia bark and a solid driving medium body that would make Queen Elizabeth proud. If you have a tea party of your own, make sure that you keep this tea aboard the ship.
