Thomas Perez –
This is a very interesting black tea that is lightly oxidized, more like a green or oolong. Herbaceous and slightly sweet with notes of dried basil and white grape. Mild floral aroma and some astringency. A good choice for a black tea drinker looking for something a little different, or a green or oolong drinker as well.
