Amount: 3 grams
Steeping Time: 3 minutes
The dry leaves have an aroma of cocoa, dates, and wood.
The infusion is bright red with a sweet aroma of cocoa, fruit, and a hint of wine. The taste is moderately astringent and malty with a sweet, dry finish.
This tea has a surprising amount of nuance and full flavor in the first steeping. While it became more astringent and dry with a second steeping, it could still be enjoyed. As with most Assams, I would not recommend a third steeping.
