Numi’s Teaview Snapshot
 | "This is a basic black, energizing tea that would be a good morning choice. "
|
This is an organic tea from Nepal that’s advertised as having a “distinct taste and slightly astringent finish”. Their website recommends this tea for stamina, strength, and guidance. Lord knows I could use more of that at any time of day. Their description of a distinct taste and astringent finish doesn’t sound attractive to me, and sells this tea short. This is a basic black, energizing tea that would be a good morning choice. There is a bit of dryness that I wish weren’t there—perhaps that’s what they mean by astringent—but the effect is not much drier than other black teas. The dryness fades away after a few minutes, eliminating the desire for gallons of water. If you want a basic black tea for everyday, this is a decent choice. I tend to think that life’s too short for decent tea when there’s swoon-worthy tea available, but this is a nicely satisfying cup that works.
