TTN: Assam TGFOP 1 Bukhial Second Flush
Posted: Mon Sep 04, 2006 4:25 pmThis Assam comes from the producer Bukhial in the subdistricts of Golghat and Sibsagar.
It's a fine black tea, but not a really exciting one. It is a sympathetic tea: true to the style, comfortingly familiar, reassuring - but lacks the spark of greatness. I guess this is like Cru Bourgeois Bordeaux: solid, true, but rarely exciting.
-O- (wishing for interesting notes on all manner of drinks from others also, please)
