100% natural Black Tea of China .Royal King Brand
July 2, 2007 at 3:11 pm | In Black Tea, Tea Reviews, Yunnan |local store NY: ~2$ /1.41oz /20 tea bags
“organic, no preservatives” (…says Royal King from the Republic of China), i do believe them… really… seriously… i swear
Method 2: 2 teabags ~ 8oz ~3? min, 190F–>
Taste: better, more familiar tho still …rather mild yunnan black tea flavor, and somewhat watery,
mild astringency/tanninic, some very low aftertaste - coating the tongue, palate.
but i have to say: better than lipton :O :O (@_@)
hot the liquid tasted ok, but some minutes later, the about room temp liquor tasted almost like nothing, i had to wash my mouth to retaste and most of the flavor was astringent.
Method 3: 2teabags and then stirred around, stressed them a little, and there is a little more taste, more astringency, and prominent cruddy tea bag taste. NASTY.
Method 1:1tbag/4oz … not even 4oz of water could concentrate some f* damn flavor…
taste: watery, faded, yunnan black tea flavor, no astringency.
poor results thusfar.
will try 2 teabags in 6oz water…
i figure more infusion time or more tbags will throughly ‘astringentize’ this infusion… oh well, we’ll see…
Overall: final score 2.0/7 … no… thats not a good score= i would not buy this on purpose… damn, its getting rather depressing with all this tasteless stuff…
