Fire Ape is the result of aging Hairy Monkey for seven years. As this tea has aged, it has become treasure. Changing from the light and delicate peach undertones to a chocolate undertone with hints of sour apple. Less delicate and more delicious.
This one was delicious and fun to steep and is very forgiving with steep times! I recommend not tossing the first steep as a wash. I found seven seconds for that first go to be really flavorful.
