Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Marked by notes of dried drupes with soft nutty-woody undertones
Appearance
Orange Amber
Taste
A well-rounded, brisk cup which opens on a delicious register of dried drupes akin to peach and gradually opens up to reveal warm, nutty accents towards the middle.

Soft tones of cedar are discernible along the edges, rendering greater depth to the liquor which however ebb to to finish on subtle hints of red berries; making for a superlative Autumnal black experience.

Goomtee classic autumn black for your afternoon sipping.

I have purchased the Darjeeling Goomtee classic autumn black tea recently,as I have not tested it earlier, the taste of this autumn black tea is satisfactory but the expected flavour is missing.

Morning Love

This is an amazing black Tea that I ever had. I ordered this for my husband. I was not a fan of black tea before, I tried on my husband's suggestion and I must agree that this tea makes you fall in love with black tea.

Very pleasant, for a black tea

I received this tea as a free sample with my order. The standard burnt/oxodized flavor of a black tea is significantly muted in this one, which I appreciate (I generally prefer oolong and green teas). The aftertaste starts out slightly sweet, like an oolong or green tea, but has a light lasting bitterness by the end of the cup.

A Fine Autumn Offering

I ordered this tea in an order placed on 7 January, 2016 and sampled it several after I received it some five days later. This tea is very fresh (obviously, as it was plucked on 30 November, 2015) and is quite full bodied. It brews up to a rich color and has a good amount of solid, woody and some fruity/floral flavors which I really enjoy. I am glad that I ordered 100g of this tea as it will be a nice one to dip into throughout the coming few winter months.
