Formosa Grade A black tea- It's About Tea

for the second tea of today  my all time favorite black tea.  Grade A Formosa from it's about tea and here is what they have to say:

This tea is smooth and full-bodied with sweet tones and finish.



Amount: 5g in dayi gaiwan 95c


First infusion: 30s



Slightly dry floral citrus honey.  reminds me of earl grey.



Second infusion: 30s


Big floral citrus earl grey note.



Third infusion:  1m



Floral  lightly creamy and dry sweetness.



4th infusion  1:30


Creamy floral and citrus.



5th infusion: 2m


Floral and creamy not much other flavors left.   could definitely go longer if i wanted. 





Final thoughts:   By far the most fragrant straight tea i'v had the pleasure of trying.  dry its like fruit loops.  This is Definitely a self drinking tea.  very well mannered and a great step up for those who enjoy the flavor of earl grey tea.
