Russian Blend ~

The Russian Blend is a complex and balanced black tea blend, combining the distinct characteristics of Darjeeling, Keemun, and Assam teas. - Darjeeling: Known for its light, floral, and slightly sweet notes, Darjeeling tea adds a delicate and refined quality to the blend. It is often described as having a Muscatel flavor, which contributes to the tea's aromatic and smooth profile. - Keemun: This Chinese black tea is recognized for its smooth, fruity, and slightly smoky flavor. The winey quality of Keemun helps to round out the blend, adding depth and a hint of complexity. - Assam: Assam tea is robust and full-bodied, with malty and sometimes chocolaty notes. It provides a strong and rich base to the blend, balancing out the lighter qualities of the Darjeeling and the smoothness of the Keemun. When brewed, the Russian Blend offers a harmonious balance of flavors. The tea is best infused with boiling water for 3-5 minutes, depending on personal preference. The resulting infusion is robust yet refined, with a rich aroma and a satisfying mouthfeel.
