The taste of New Vithanakande is very "round" and satisfying—a wonderful tea for afternoon enjoyment. We love the look of the black leaf with a gold streak running through it.
That gold streak running through the black leaf is such a pretty sight in the pot, and the taste really is as round and smooth as described. Perfect for a slow afternoon when you want something comforting without any sharpness.
Afternoon tea just got a whole lot better—the brew is so smooth and round, almost comforting, with no bitterness at all. And the dry leaves themselves are gorgeous, that dark black with the gold streak makes it feel special before you even pour the water.
The gold streak running through those black leaves is genuinely striking, and the flavor lives up to the look—so round and smooth, it's perfect for a slow afternoon. I've already gone through half the bag in a week.
