Friday Afternoon
Type: Flavored Black
Origin: Not Provided
Product Description: This blend is composed of a scrumptious Irish Cream flavored Ceylon black tea, a touch of Lapsang Souchong, and marigold petals. Very much like rum and gunsmoke in a cup! We sold clean out of this blend when it debuted at FaerieCon West!
Temperature: 208° F
Amount: 3 grams
Steeping Time: 3 minutes
The dry leaves have an aroma of wood smoke, coconut, and a touch of rum.
The infusion is orange-amber with a smoky sweet aroma and notes of cocoa butter and rum. The taste is smooth and smoky with coconut notes, low astringency and a smooth smoky finish.
The flavor comes out well without being too heavy and holds up fairly well into a second infusion. Due to the low astringency, I believe this could be easily steeped for 4-5 minutes with good results.
This tea was received as a gift from a third party.
