Bengal Tiger Majestic Mandel

This is my second bag and the almond pieces actually hold up through multiple steeps, which surprised me. The Assam base gives it that proper malty bite I crave in the afternoon, and it doesn't turn bitter even when I get distracted and let it sit.

First cup this morning and the malty depth is exactly what I needed—those almond slivers add a subtle nutty finish without overpowering the Assam. It brews up a rich, dark amber that’s got real body, and the flavor holds up even after a few minutes in the pot.

The almond pieces are what sold me—they actually hold up in the cup and give each sip a subtle, nutty richness that plays perfectly off the bold Assam body. It's a proper full-bodied brew that stands up to milk, and the malty finish lingers just long enough.
