This time Yorkshire Tea.
It's OK. Bitter...I am not sure I taste any flavour at all. I just get an incredibly strong black tea. Prolly something that could resuscitate a dead man.
The same as Yorkshire Gold yesterday.
I woke up at 05.45 today and decided on not pretending that I sleep until 06.20. Took a cold shower and tried a new tea.
NBTea got a new Assam in stock and I gave it a try.
Assam SFTGFOP1 Mangalam.
Last year, I tried Assam BPS CL Mangalam from Tea House Emporium. It was a very strong tea but its lack of flavour was a disappointment. It was a good one as the first cuppa in the office to wake up but not to savour the flavour. It looked like small granules/pellets?
Assam SFTGFOP1 Mangalam is different. It consists of tea leaves and tastes good. It has a flavour as the proper Assam should. I would rate it 7/10 in comparison to Fortnum and Mason's 9-10/10.
