Tasting Notes: brisk and bright

Description: An orange pekoe black tea that has the classic Kenyan profile of brisk flavor with delicate astringency. A light to medium-bodied black tea with a fine balance of maltiness, briskness, and astringency in each sip.  An amber coppery colored black tea with subtle notes of buttered toast, soft earth, currants, and faint citrus notes.

A versatile tea that's enjoyable both iced and hot. This is the tea that we recommend for people who want a brisk and refreshing unflavored black iced tea.

For hot tea drinkers, we recommend this tea for people who enjoy black breakfast teas on the lighter side.
