Have you ever tried Sobacha?
I guess Chai Tea - black tea spiced with Indian herbs and Sobacha will be tested this weekend
I have tried a new Assam from NBTea last weekend and loved it.
Assam Hazelbank FTGFOP1
Black tea that has a flavour

The best Assam so far.
Btw., I just remembered one more interesting thing from Tea Smith.
I asked her whether it is a good idea to rinse the toucha before steeping it. She looked a bit funny at me and answered with a question of her own:
Haven't you notice that I have rinsed at least once all teas you had tonight? White, green, oolong and pu-erh.
She thinks it is important.
