December 3, 2015 - Orange Pekoe


David's Tea - Orange Pekoe

Suggested serving

Amount: 1.25 tsp
Time:   4 - 7 min
Temperature: 96° C
Notes: Medium Caffeine.

Ingredients: Black tea

Review:  I have never tried David's Tea's Orange Pekoe before so am very thankful it made into the advent calendar! The scent is unassuming and after steeping for a few minutes and with no sugar or cream, the Assam flavour was brilliant. Unlike some other Orange Pekoes this one had no bitterness - though perhaps I didn't steep it long enough. And like most black teas (at least I find) there was some astringency. Overall though, I nice pick-me-up tea.

Rating: 8.4/10
