Schwarzer Tee Berlin 2011

The blend of seven different teas gives it a complexity I haven't found in other blacks—each sip shifts from malty to slightly floral. I've been brewing it strong with a splash of milk and it holds up beautifully. Perfect for slow weekend mornings.

Every cup pours a deep, almost coppery brew that smells like a proper Berlin afternoon. The seven-tea mix stays rich even after I let it steep a bit too long, which is a win in my book. This one has earned a permanent spot in my morning routine.

The blend of seven different teas gives it a depth I haven’t found in most single-origin blacks—each sip shifts slightly, which keeps it interesting. I’ve been brewing it strong with a splash of milk in the afternoons, and it holds up beautifully even after it cools a bit.
