- How can I take the leave?
- What if I can't reach an agreement with my employer?
- Do I get paid when I am on parental leave?
- My employer's company is very small. Do they still have to offer parental leave?
- I work part-time. Am I still entitled to parental leave?
- Will parental leave change when shared parental leave is introduced in 2015?
- Will my boss question my commitment if I take parental leave?
What is parental leave?Parental leave is the right to take time off work to care for your child or to make arrangements for his welfare. Some of the reasons you may want to take parental leave include:
- you want to take some extra leave after your maternity or paternity leave
- you'd like to spend more time with your child
- you'd like to spend some time settling him into childcare
- you're looking at schools
Parental leave is available if you have worked for your current employer for at least a year by the time you want to take the leave.
Each parent is eligible for 18 weeks' leave, which you can take at any time until your child's fifth birthday. If your child is disabled and qualifies for disability living allowance, you can take 18 weeks of parental leave up to their 18th birthday. If you have adopted a child, you can take it up to five years from the date of placement.
If you are not living with your child, you can still take 18 weeks' parental leave. However, you should have legal parental responsibility for your child, and you have to use the leave to care for him.
How can I take the leave?You can take parental leave in a number of ways. It's up to you and your employer to make arrangements. You can either do this through discussion with your manager, or through a company agreement.
What if I can't reach an agreement with my employer?If you and your employer haven't reached an agreement, a fallback scheme automatically applies. The fallback scheme conditions are:
- You can take parental leave in blocks of one week or more.
- You can take a maximum of four weeks' leave per year per child.
- You must give your employer at least 21 days' notice of the dates that you plan to take.
- If your child has a disability, you can take the leave in shorter periods than one week.
- If your employer feels that the leave would disrupt business, or needs more time to arrange cover, it can be postponed for up to six months. However, if you apply to take some parental leave immediately after your baby's birth, your employer can't postpone it.
If you need to take time off for an emergency, such as when your child is ill, you don't have to give notice. You will just need to let your employer know what the problem is as soon as you can, and when you expect to be back in work.
Do I get paid when I am on parental leave?You don't have an automatic right to be paid during your parental leave. Any payment would be at the discretion of your employer, so you may want to ask if they are prepared to make one. Some employers do offer paid parental leave, so check your employment contract.
If you are on a low income, or if your partner is not working, you may be eligible for some benefits such as income support. For more information on benefits for low income families, visit GOV.UK.
My employer's company is very small. Do they still have to offer parental leave?Yes. All employers must offer parental leave, regardless of the size of the business. As long as you have worked there for a year, you're entitled to take parental leave.
I work part-time. Am I still entitled to parental leave?Yes. Parental leave allowance works on a pro-rata basis. If you work a shorter week, then your leave will be calculated according to your normal, or average, hours. So if you work for two days a week, one week of parental leave equals two days. In this case, you'd be entitled to 18 blocks of two days, or 36 days.
Will parental leave change when shared parental leave is introduced in 2015?No. The new rules on shared parental leave will allow parents to choose to share the 52-week entitlement to maternity leave. Your right to parental leave won't be affected by this change.
From April 2015, you'll have the right to choose to share your maternity leave with your partner. Shared parental leave is being introduced to give parents more choice and flexibility in how they share the care of their new baby. It's also designed to make it easier for women to resume their career when they've had a baby. The new rule won't replace maternity or paternity leave – it's another way for mums and dads to use their entitlements.
Will my boss question my commitment if I take parental leave?Your employer can't discriminate against you because you ask for, or take, parental leave. You are protected against unfair dismissal or unfair teatment. This covers a number of discriminatory actions, such as being refused promotion or being denied opportunities for training. So taking parental leave should not prevent you from gaining a promotion or being taken seriously by your employer.
If you feel that this is happening, seek advice from:
- your trade union
- your HR department
- your local Citizen's Advice Bureau
- Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS)
You are entitled to return to the same job as before if your leave is for a period of four weeks or less. If your leave is for longer than four weeks, you should be able return to the same job. If that is not possible, your employer should offer you a similar job with the same or better status, terms and conditions as your old job.

Hamas is not a terrorist organization, it is a resistance movement, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared on Friday at a rally in the Turkish province of Konya, according to local daily Hurriyet.Erdogan reportedly said Hamas, the legitimate winner of the Palestinian elections, was fighting for its land. "You are always talking about democracy. You'll never let Hamas rule. What kind of democracy is this?" he reportedly said, apparently addressing the Israeli leadership.

The boss of Hong Kong Triad Organization "Tung Luen Shun", ANDY (Siu Fai CHEUNG - Election I&II/Fatal Move/Vengeance) was arrested and executed for smuggling counterfeit Renminbi in mainland China. With the boss removed, "Tung Luen Shun" was in a critical stage which a new leader had to be appointed fast. The great sum of Andy's estate also caused a major conflict among the Triad family members. Mysterious murders followed, causing deaths of many leading members of the gang. An evil plot was set to seize control and possession of "Tung Luen Shun". Who's the mastermind behind all these killings! The arrogant strong man, Funky (Simon YAM - Lara Croft Yomb Raider: The Cradle of Life/Election I&II/Fatal Move/Vegeance)... the seemingly gentle daughter of the family, AUDREY (Bernice LIU - King of Fighters)... the quiet and deformed warrior, CALF (Andy On - Black Mask/Mad detective)... the greedy senior members, HUNG (Kenneth Low - Police Story II/The Myth), KONG(Xin Xin XIONG - Once upon a time in China) and Zen (Wai Man Chan - A Joruney West)... the naive younger brother... all the other wives of the former boss... or the mysterious mute girl, Dumby (Lu Xia Jiang - Coweb)?

October 22nd, 2010, 08:01 AM #63Spoiler:Pretty much everything from the return of the nun, to her blowing up babcock with a bomb left around for 50 years. all of the characters you invested 400 pages into just got "to be continued" in about 50 pages. I alos didnt realize it would be part of a series, so that anticipation of a real ending and subsequent dissapointment was also bad for me.

I came out of The Passage with it having an open ending. As the spoiler above seems to wrap it all up in a nice little bow. The book was in no way worth the $5 mil he was paid. I also have no desire to read anything else from Cronin as I thought it was tripe.

It was definately not worth 5 million dollars, but it seems multiple publishers must have gotten into a bidding war over it and I really don't understand why. I'm not all that familiar with the vampire genre, but are there no other books out there that are similiar to this?

I mean if Dan Brown is worth millions, or the memoirs of the latest hot politician/celebrity...
As for the book itself, I am definitely interested in more but it's not that big asap, whenever I get my hand of a copy is fine - this one I intended to check on publication but i got an unasked arc and I opened it and got hooked

2) Film deal and one where the movie stood a good chance of being made. The deal hadn't been made when the book rights were sold, but they knew the agent was shopping it and that there was interest. Even if the movie comes out and doesn't do that well, it will shoot up sales onto the bestseller list.
3) Book auction. When you are competing with several publishers for the rights of what is getting a lot of buzz, that drives up the risk-taking on the advance.
4) They liked it and thought readers would like it too.
It's a gamble, and they've lost big on such gambles before. But it seems to have done okay on the lists, people liked it and reviewed it well and did word of mouth, and if they get the film, they'll make it back.

I have just finished the book, and thought it was great. Extremely well written, characters I genuinely cared for, and a very good mix of action and storytelling. I can see why this was once touted for a movie, some of the action set pieces just appeared in my mind like a movie.
5 out of 5 from me, definitely.
As for some of the problems that other readers have mentioned:
Spoiler:I had a little problem at first with the whole psychic child coincidence, but then just let it go. I mean, if I am buying into a world where vampires were living in South America I can see that psychics can exist. Yes, it is certainly a coincidence that she was the one chosen to be the child injected with the virus, but then I think that a lot of the book had a "higher power looking over us" type feel (the nun, the mysterious ghost that saved Theo) and I was able to live with this.
I really enjoyed the ending. I felt it left me wanting more, and I found the epilogue section very moving, particularly the final few words. However, I may be lucky in that the sequel is coming out soon, so I do not have to wait very long for the next installment. I also did not realise that this was not a stand alone book when I first started to read it, and had I had read it in 2010 to then find out that I had to wait a few years to find out what happens next I may have been a little more annoyed.
I found the split a third of the way through a little unusual, but again nothing I could not live with. I think I enjoyed the characters in the later two thirds of the book more anyway, and once I got over the initial "jar" of the change of scenery I think this was ok.

The Twelve comes out on the 16th. Can't wait to get started on it.
October 10th, 2012, 06:28 AM #72
I must admit I enjoyed The Passage, but I did have to work for it. I get the feeling that it really is a Marmite book, you will love it or hate it.
I really got into the first part (the book is split into two very distinct halves, almost two separate books) and expected a disintegration of society much like Stephen King's 'Stand'. When I didn't get it, I did feel a bit cheated. The book suddenly fast forwarding so many years caught me out, and having to put aside the characters from the first half and start again with a new bunch was jarring. I also struggled to get my head around who was who in the second half, which led to my not being very attached to them.
I persisted and did enjoy it, in fact it is a book I think would benefit from another read-through (I think it would be better second time around), if only the second half.
I have the sequel pre-ordered, it will drop onto my Kindle in a couple of weeks when it is released over here.

The Twelve
The early years of the 22nd Century. North America is crawling with 'virals', creatures of superior strength and stamina who feed on human blood and flesh. Most are unintelligent, but they are controlled by 'the Twelve', the original death-row inmates who were experimented upon to create the virals. Standing against them is Amy, the Girl From Nowhere, and her allies, a military force based in Texas.
The death of one of the Twelve has also resulted in the destruction of the virals he created. This reveals the path to victory and survival: kill the Twelve and end the viral threat forever. But this is easier said than done. After five years of failed assassinations the military are ready to abandon the mission, and only one last attempt can be made.
With millions of copies sold, translations in forty languages published and the film rights bought for a very high amount, The Passage was one of the biggest success stories of 2010. The Twelve is the direct sequel and the middle volume of a proposed trilogy (the final volume, City of Mirrors, is due in 2014). However, Cronin has gone to some lengths to try to avoid 'middle volume syndrome' by giving the book a number of self-contained narratives and character arcs whilst also continuing the story of Peter, Alicia, Amy and the other survivors of the First Colony and their war against the Twelve.
The Twelve contains much of the same that made The Passage a good book: good characterisation, evocative descriptions and a rich atmosphere. It improves on it in several areas as well. It's a notably shorter (by some 200 pages), more concise and more focused book with every chapter building up to the conclusion. The Twelve does repeat The Passage's structure of having an opening section (in this case the first third of the novel) depicting the fall of civilisation before moving to the post-apocalyptic 'present day'. There are numerous self-contained stories in this section which are compelling reads, but initially appear a little disconnected from the post-apocalyptic storyline. However, Cronin eventually loops most of these storylines back to the main story and explains their relevance.
The biggest problem The Twelve faces, which is much more present than The Passage, is that of adhering to the traditional post-apocalyptic, 'big showdown' type of storyline whilst trying to surprise a reader familiar with the rules and tropes of such storylines. Now the rules of this particular type of vampire/zombie story have been set, Cronin shows a surprising inability to surprise or startle the reader any more. Things proceed pretty much as you might expect them to: some reversals, a few capture-and-escape sequences and then a big explosive finale (literally, with some huge explosions and shoot-outs) and something of a happy ending, until the inevitable final chapter which ends on a cliffhanger note leading into the final volume.
This predictability extends to the villains, with the rulers of the human/viral colony being rather rape-happy towards their prisoners. Whilst the issue isn't simply tossed in for the sake of it (as it would have been in, say, a Stephen King book) and is treated seriously, it's still a disappointing cliche to indulge in, especially as otherwise the treatment of the female characters is highly positive (three of the primary POVs - Alicia, Amy and Sara - are all female and are the most well-developed characters in the book).
The Twelve (****) is a very solid read, with Cronin's skills with character and prose being undiminished and even a tad improved from the first volume. However, the storyline is a lot more straightfoward, and the book shows a general decline towards predictability and cliche - though well-written - which is disappointing. The novel is available now in the UK and USA.

Vampire lineages as the back-door against overwhelming odds loophole? That's making me less interested. Actually, just the fact of having a back-door against overwhelming odds loophole makes me less interested. But the flashback parts sound interesting.

Just past the 50 percent mark and I must say I am enjoying this a lot more than the first instalment. This may be due to the premise having already been established - with the first book the story effectively stopped half way in and then restarted following 'the event', whereas this time the event is pre-existing so Cronin has more time to characterise and tell a coherent story. I was particularly pleased to see the inclusion of vignettes of experience at, during and after the event - some of the individuals I am sure will feature further as the story develops, but it was something I looked forward to in the first book and did not feature.
Anyhow, time to read on. More thoughts once I finish it.

As a volunteer, if I were FORCED into anything in that way, I would graciously tell them that I don't want to do that, and that I quit. Then, I would be the parent that stays at the Den meetings and helps out. When I was in Cub Scouts, I did it for my sons, and I felt being a Den leader was enough of a sacrifice to their quality time, and I can't imagine being a Den Leader for another bunch of Cubs. SOunds like the CM's further pack was one of those "get it all done before Blue and Gold" packs, and his boys were bored due to that. They won't be as bored next year, unless he does all those achievements at home over the summer.

Post #16 was my parental post. Now, in terms of effectiveness as a Den Leader, I think it would actually be better to be the Den leader for the same den for several years. My sons are one scout year apart. I had the opportunity to be the WDL for both of their second years as Webelos. I think I did a better job the second go-round.

Originally posted by ScoutNut View PostWhen a CC has to recruit a CM from outside of the Pack that raises a lot of red flags to me about that Pack.
Then there is the fact that your Pack is losing their (current) Wolf leader, filling that position with a leader from a different den, and "recruiting" yet more adults from outside the Pack to fill leader positions.
Other than you (and your GF), are there no Pack parents willing/able to step up?
Again, why did your CC seek out this person, in particular, to recruit? What were his qualities (other than being a warm, available, body) that brought him to your CC's notice? Are CC and CM buddies?
I would also be interested in what the CM's issues were with his old Pack. Especially considering the drama he is stirring up in his new one.
It does not seem that he plays (or works) well with others.
such a difficult task.
I'm not sure why the new CM was chosen exactly. I will find more out when I speak with the CC.

This method could work but it is not the norm with cub scouts and he did not sell the approach. I question if it is sustainable with parents as den leaders. You almost need to get people that no longer have cub scout age scouts but still want to be involved. It seems like most of people that do not have kids end up volunteering at the boy scout level.
This is my opnion and totally mine.
I rather parents NOT work in the same Den as their child, just my opinion.
Vested interest? My son is not in my Den does that mean I dont have a "vested" interest? When he moves up to Boy Scouts and I remain in Cubs what is my vested interest? The boys are MY VESTED interest.
The boys have had the same DL Tiger-Bear. Kids make bonds to their leaders and I like the fact that Cub Scouts (unlike school or other activities) they get to keep the same adult role models year after year.
There is DEFINITELY something else going on here.
I would be afraid to put someone in charge of my program when they were unhappy with their other program. Usually its a bit of a two way street when people are unhappy. And now this guy seems to be going buckwild.
BUT at the end of the day, keep in mind, the program is ABOUT THE KIDS. And what is best for your kids and all the rest of the kids.
I don't believe your GF staying with the Bears is a super great idea unless her heart is behind it.
My suggestion would to be, do as others have said, and just be a parent if she is no longer needed as a leader. To be a great leader you need to know how to be a follower first... I would much rather find someone worthy of following and helping that way than have to lead it myself. You can do so much more when you aren't bogged down with everything at the top.
I can understand why your GF is upset. The new CM did not handle the situation well at all. I would resign as a leader and sit back and watch the 'show' as the new leaders take over. Or find a new unit, but only if it fits the needs of my scout.
Recruiting den leaders from the parents of a den is an obvious choice when looking for leaders. Those parents are the adults already in the room, so to speak. It especially makes sense when dens meet on different nights. I personally would not be willing to lead a den other than my son's den if it meant that I would be attending meetings twice a week, once for my son's den and once for my own. My pack does switch den leaders around but we all meet at the same time and place each week.
I think the idea that women cannot be good Webelos leaders is asinine. I have worked with great Webelos leaders who are male and great leaders who are female. I've also worked with male and female leaders who are well-intentioned but not good leaders. It is best to look at what each PERSON brings to the table as a leader if your unit is lucky to have more than one candidate for each leadership position.
I think that the problems with female Webelos Leaders isn't that they are female, it's that the baggage that usually comes with them... i.e. they aren't picked for the right reasons. I know some OUTSTANDING female Webelos Leaders and nobody begrudges them for their gender. However, a lot of moms recruited as Den Leader do fine in the Craft oriented Tiger-Wolf years, but struggle as Bears need more physical involvement and Webelos with the pressure for more Scout Craft. The bigger issue is that as the boys need to get outside their comfort zone and stretch, mom is more likely to coddle and protect. Now, there are plenty that break the stereotype, so no need to gender discriminate, but a new Cubmaster that doesn't know the leaders might fall back on gender stereotypes which is bad. You need to nuture the Tigers/Wolves through the program, encourage them to stretch as Bears, but you really need to back off and let the boys figure out more as Webelos, which moms struggle with more than dads. I'd way rather have a female leader that is trained, understands the program, etc., than a male leader that doesn't. If both are trained and understand the program, gender is irrelevant. HOWEVER, if I'm dealing with parents that don't get the program, I'll take an uninformed male leader over an uninformed female leader, though neither choice is ideal. If the female leader is in uniform and filling the leadership role, it's great. However, if the leader (of either gender) is going to show up in Class B, be uncomfortable with regimentation and other Scout-like things, then the boys react poorly to female leaders. So a good leader is a good leader regardless of gender. For a crappy leader, it's going to be crappy regardless, but crappy female leaders are worse.
The answer to your question is simple – YES he can
I'm not endorsing what was done, as Pack Leadership should function as a team.
Now let me explain:
- The Charter org appoints a CC
- The CC fills the committee positions
- The committee identifies CM candidates, and makes a recommendation to the Charter Org, which can confirm or veto the appointment
- Once the CM is appointed he identifies and recruits his assistant, and the Den Leaders, typically with the committee's help, but the committee doesn't have to be part of this process.
- The Charter Org must approve all volunteers.
Although I don't agree what how this was done, as this act appeared to take a group of leaders who were presumably in the late stages of team development, back to square one, I also have a huge issue with parents who are just there for their child. While it's true many packs do progress leaders with their own child, it's equally true that may packs won't allow a parent to serve as a leader for their child's den. When you decide to be a scouting volunteer you're making a choice to serve, mentor, and guide all youth within the program, not facilitate your own child's advancement. Please note office patches say "Leader" not Mom or Dad.
I can think of many reasons, some good and some bad, why a CM might do this. Rather than yelling and getting angry a simple, logical question should have been asked "why do you want to make these changes?" Without the answer to that question this whole conversation is a waste of time.Last edited by Old_OX_Eagle83; 06-17-2014, 10:11 AM.

This is a very important point, and I thank you for adding it to the discussion.

Darling little flips flops for my 18 month old. I was surprised how well he can walk in them and how well they stay on his feet. They seemed like they ran a bit smaller than all his other shoes, I just wish I would have ordered the next size up.

(page 2) 14 votes This is a global catch-all question to have one central in-game question for each game (or pair of games) in a manner similar to the moveset questions Six Pokemon are required and while legendaries can be suggested, do remember that many people do not like using them because of how easy it makes the game. You might also want to keep the starter. Moves are required for each Pokemon. You should make sure to take into account that some people cannot trade, nor do they want to use cheating devices such as AR. As such, suggesting Conkeldurr is not the best idea. Items, EVs, and Natures are not required. Please provide ample explanation. No animated images (they slow down the page).

Is this team ok? commented Mar 6 by ArcaNineTails Please log in or register to add a comment. Please log in or register to answer this question. 50 Answers 0 votes Tepig as starter: Emboar, Crobat, Excadrill, Haxorus, Jellicent, Gothitelle/Reuniculus, I just swap Lucky Eggs and Amulet Coins among my Pokemon, so I'm not going to list the items. Before you get the pre-evos of the Pokemon I'm listing, carry around an army of Pickup Lillipups to get you items. Also have a Pokemon that can use Surf before you get Jellicent. The moves are pre-Elite 4, so TMs such as Earthquake are not there. Emboar Trait: Blaze EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Fire Punch/Flare Blitz - Low Kick - Bulldoze - ThunderPunch The best of the starters is the worst of the starters. Like any paradox, once you think about that statement, you realize it's truth. Emboar is outclassed completely by the powerful Darmanitan. And having Emboar means you can't have two of the best Pokemon in the game, Volcarona and Lucario, without doubling up on your types, which is something I never enjoy doing for ingame. Because of these facts, Emboar is the worst of the starters. Now, this Emboar can still do some damage. No Speed EVs, as eventually you'll get to the point where the base speed of your opponent outspeeds Emboar's full speed. So the focus is on HP and Attack, with an Adamant nature. Fire Punch you can get from the tutor and is Emboar's most reliable attack. You can use Flare Blitz however if you either don't mind the recoil or have a large supply of healing items. Low Kick becomes useful later on, getting STAB and doing solid damage to heavy foes you face. Bulldoze and Thunderpunch provide coverage, with Bulldoze even slowing down the foe so Emboar can outspeed slower opponents. Crobat Trait: Inner Focus EVs: 132 HP / 252 Atk / 124 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Fly - Cross Poison - X-Scissor - Wing Attack Your Flying type. You get it pretty early on, in Castelia Sewers. You can easily evolve it into a Golbat, and probably a Crobat after your next level up. Crobat's main job is to Fly you around. With good stats, this is the best Pokemon to do that for Emboar. Cross Poison is STAB. X-Scissor hits Psychic types hard. Wing Attack is a STAB move you can use when you don't want to use Fly, which I find is often. It also has a whopping 35 PP, so you can go quite some time without a Pokemon Center or Doctor before needing to replenish Crobat's PP. With 31 Speed IVs you hit 327 Speed, enough to outrun any Accelegor. It's a good number to aim for, just so Crobat is faster than everything you face. Then we have Attack and bulk. Excadrill Trait: Sand Rush EVs: 28 HP / 252 Atk / 228 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Iron Head - Rock Slide - Strength The choice of your Ground type is a hard one. There are many good Ground types in BW2. In addition to Excadrill you have Krookodile, Mamoswine, and Golurk as the ones of note. I won't blame you for choosing any of those three instead of Excadrill, as they're all great Pokemon. However, I find that Excadrill's Attack and Speed give it an advantage over the others. Plus, you get it earliest. Drillbur can be found in Relic Passage Dust Clouds. It soon proves itself handy vs Elesa. Earthquake just tears apart everything in the game. Iron Head also hits hard. And Rock Slide takes down Flying types. Strength is a useful HM for ingame. The Speed EVs allow you to outspeed Zebstrika among other things. Then we have full out Attack and some bulk. Haxorus Trait: Mold Breaker EVs: 108 HP / 252 Atk / 148 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Outrage - Bulldoze - Dragon Claw - False Swipe You thought Excadrill and Emboar hit hard. Haxorus makes them look like Metapod using Tackle. Outrage just pulverizes the opponent. And since this is inmgame, you can switch out once you take down the foe, meaning you don't get trapped in Outrage as easily as in competitive. Bulldoze offers coverage, and is nice along with Mold Breaker, especially in getting past that damn Boldore Sturdy. Since you'll mostly just crush everything using Outrage, Dragon Claw is there to provide more PP to your STAB. False Swipe is for use in catching Pokemon. The EVs give you nice Speed, great Attack, and some bulk. Jellicent Trait: Water Absorb EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Surf - Shadow Ball - Ice Beam - Waterfall Your Water type. There aren't really many good Water type options. Jellicent is the best one in my opinion. It has great typing with multiple resistances and three immunities with help from Water Absorb. While you get it later in the game, a bit before getting to the 7th Gym Leader, you get it at a nice level 40. So it doesn't hold your team back when you get it. The main purpose of it is to use Surf, the best ingame move ever. Shadow Ball is STAB. Ice Beam is coverage. Waterfall is another HM. EVs give bulk and offense. Gothitelle Trait: Frisk EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Psychic - Thunderbolt - Signal Beam - Thunder Wave You use this gal for Black 2. You get it around the 4th Gym, which is nice. I prefer Reuniculus, but that isn't an option for some people. Gothitelle is good also. Solid Special Attack and nice bulk. Frisk is cool, showing you what Pokemon to catch because they have items on them. Psychic is STAB. Thunderbolt and Signal Beam are coverage. Thunder Wave helps in catching wild Pokemon. EVs give bulk and power. It is a nice support Pokemon (support as in helping catch and know what to catch) as it has some power behind it. or Reuniclus Trait: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Psychic - Shadow Ball - Energy Ball - Thunder Wave For use with White 2. Easily better than Gothitelle. This thing hits incredibly hard. And it's bulky to boot. Slowest thing on the field, but so worth it. Magic Guard is a great ability also. Psychic is STAB. Shadow and Energy Ball are coverage. Thunder Wave is to help in catching Pokemon. EVs give power and bulk. answered Jan 28, 2013 by trachy edited Apr 17, 2013 by Pokemaster I really like this team. I'm currently using it in Black 2. commented Feb 17, 2013 by Pokecore try out metagross, he's has very high attack and he learns the move meteor mash or something like that commented Jul 16, 2013 by flickinskip Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes I'm not sure if you would use this for competitive purposes, but ingame this works well. Starter - Oshawott - Dewott - Samurott (Water Type) Moves - Surf, Ice Beam, Hydro Pump, Revenge Surf because it has a good base power and gets a STAB due to it being a water type move Ice Beam to combat any grass types that might appear and is good against Flying and Dragon types as well. Hydro Pump as it only attacks one Pokemon, where as surf hits everyone, so if in a double battle, you don't hit your partner, plus a STAB due to it being a water move Revenge to hit any steel type Pokemon, and if damaged before, the power becomes 120. Second member - Riolu - Lucario (Fighting/Steel) Moves - Close Combat, Swords Dance, Psychic, Bone Rush Close Combat as it has a high base power and with the additional STAB, makes for a pretty good move. Defence does fall but shouldn't be a problem if you keep speed up. Swords Dance as it will further heighten Lucario's already decent attack. Psychic to deal with any poison types as, though they can't hit you, still need to be taken care off. Bone Rush to deal with any Fire type Pokemon, as fire is a weakness to Lucario. Third Member - Mareep - Flaaffy - Ampharos (Electric Type) Moves - Discharge, Signal Beam, Confuse Ray and Power Gem Discharge - Ampharos specialises in Special attack, and with the added STAB and the fact discharge has a high base power, it can make for a good move. It hits everyone though, so be careful using it in double battles Signal Beam - A bug type special move, it can take care of any grass types you encounter, and has a pretty good base power as well. Confuse Ray - Because it's fun watching the enemy hit themselves from time to time, and plus may give you a few free turns to take out your opponent. Power Gem - A rock type move with good base power, good against any fire types and good to mix up some move types. Fourth Member - Pidove - Tranquill - Unfeazent (Normal/Flying type) (Try and get one with Super Luck ability, heightens rate of crit hits) Moves - Fly, Steel Wing, Roost, U-Turn Fly - Not only good in battle, but useful on the field as well. Has good base power and gains STAB due to it being a flying type move Steel Wing - Hits Rock and Ice types well, so that covers weaknesses, and has pretty good base power Roost - Mainly to recover health. If you don't want roost, use Return, good base power if your Pokemon love you. U-Turn - Ideal to inflict damage and switch out to a stronger Pokemon if needs be. Fifth Member - Growlithe - Arcanine (Fire Type) Moves - Flare Blitz, Extreme Speed, Wild Charge and Toxic Flare Blitz as not only is a powerful move, you get a STAB due to it being a fire type move. Highly recommend this move. Extreme Speed has a priority of +2, and hits hard, so good for dealing that sure fire last hit Wild Charge as it is an electric type move, working well against any water types, and it has a good base power Toxic to poison the opponent and deal a lot of damage over time Sixth Member - Petilil - Lilligant (Grass Type) Moves - Energy Ball, Sleep Powder, Hidden Power (Fire), Giga Drain Energy Ball is a great special move, with a high base power and STAB from it being a grass type. Sleep Powder because putting the foe to sleep is always cool Hidden Power (Fire) Because you need to have something other than grass type moves, otherwise an Oddish could probably take you out Giga Drain to recover your own health while taking away theirs Any Criticism welcome, as I said, I'm not sure about Online battling but this team hasn't failed me yet. answered Mar 30, 2013 by KisalaYuki Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes I went through many Pokemon in BW2, avoiding the use of legendaries and more frequently used Pokemon, and these six proved themselves worthy. Ive noticed a lot of people used emboar. You know what I call those people? Smart. Emboar: expert belt Nature: adamant Ability: blaze Moves: Flare blitz Hammer arm Stone edge/earthquake Wild charge This guy is one destructive Lucha libre. He works best as a pure attacker, as he has a good move pool and the stats to back it. He can also run special attacks, but mine had an adamant nature so yeah the attacks above we're the way to go. The first two are obvious STAB while stone edge and wild charge provide coverage. The first addition Magnezone: leftovers Nature:calm Ability: sturdy Moves: magnet rise Thunderbolt Flash cannon Tri attack/thunder wave Literally everyone of my friends chose oshawott as their starter and had lucario on there team, so I made it my mission use another early game steel type. I got through many battles using it alone with those thirteen awesome resistances. Magnet rise removes that awful weakness to ground while tbolt and fc are stab. The last slot goes to either tri attack for electric types or thunder wave for status The next guy: Reuniclus:life orb Nature: bold Ability: magic gaurd Moves: psychic Focus blast Calm mind Recover Everyone's favorite fetus proved to be one heck of a bulky sweeper. She's (yes it's a female) pretty simple. Calm mind to boost recover when your hurt and break things. Surfin tentacles Jellicent: item varying, typically leftovers or splash plate Nature: modest Ability: water absorb Moves: surf Shadow ball Will o wisp Recover/ice beam With all the sea routes you need a surfer in your main team, and jellicent was mine. She was mainly bulky support but every once in a while she helped offensively. Surf and shadow ball are the stabs with will o wisp adding status and either recover or ice beam rounding out the set with bulk and coverage respectively. The Monster Haxorus: Draco plate (choice scarf in PWT) Nature: jolly Ability: mold breaker Moves: outrage Brick break/dragon claw Earthquake Dragon dance/dragon claw (PWT) This guy is so OP it's not even funny. He and magnezone are the typical stars. Normally I run a dd set but in PWT I give him a choice scarf to defeat faster threats, specifically opposing dragons, without setup. Outrage and dragon claw are stab while earthquake and brick break deal with steel types. Dd boosts And last but certainly not least: Gliscor: no item Nature: impish Ability: hyper cutter Moves: earthquake Acrobatics Toxic Roost The bulky bat scorpion brought an appreciated ground immunity to the team. He and magnezone have good synergy. He serves as a physical bulky attacker as well as a physical hit taker. Sometimes I throw leftovers on him and replace acrobatics with stone edge. Flying and ground get could coverage anyway and toxic is always handy. Roost is for healing (obviously). Well that's what I did, and it made the game a breeze. Hope it helped. answered Apr 6, 2013 by Dudeicolo Note: If you did not choose tepig, darmanitan should be a suitable sub.

You can get Ice Beam in the Giant Chasm and is a strong move. MegaHorn is a powerful move and Razor Shell is a Physical Move Which Samurott needs. Ampharos @ Magnet Moves: Thunder Wave Thunderbolt Power Gem Electro Ball Keep Thunder Wave from the start so you can paralysis Pokemon. Thunderbolt and Electro Ball will become a Little more stronger with the Thunder Wave. Power Gem is a good move but you can also take away Power Gem for Signal Beam. Lucario @ Fighting Gem Moves: Aura Sphere Psychic Swords Dance EarthQuake You should have Psychic and Swords Dance because it will be helpful to have. Aura Sphere is a really powerful move and so is Earthquake. Crobat @ Poison Barb Moves: Fly Sludge Bomb Confuse Ray Bite Fly is important to have and Confuse ray is helpful just like Thunder Wave. Bite can take down the 1st and 3rd Elite Four Member. Sludge Bomb is useful against Grass PKMN Flareon @ Charcoal Moves: FlameThrower Quick Attack Shadow Ball Dig Flamethrower is found at a house by Victory Road. Keep Quick Attack (It is useful to hit Speedy Pkmn) Shadow Ball is found by the Strange House by Lentimas Town and Dig is found in Route 4. It's a strong Move set Roserade @ Miracle Seed Moves: Grass Knot Sludge Bomb Energy Ball Toxic You can get Grass Knot at Pinwheel Forest but you can trade your Roserade to a Pokemon White 1 Game. Teach Sludge Bomb with the same TM used to teach Crobat. Energy Ball can be found at Aspertia City by your house at the end of the lake so you need to use Surf (On your Samurott) Toxic is found at SeaSide Cave which is also good to have when you teach Roserade Venoshock (You might want to do that if you want) and is useful such as Thunder Wave and Confuse Ray Hope this Helped Comments and Opinions are excepted just remember that 2 Pokemon are weak against Psychic.

You will see these Pokemon: This team was my team, my friends did agreed that it was good. I hope you could try it to and you'll know why I picked these also. Samurott the Megahorned Otter Well, I picked this one because it has a good movepool with full of STAB. Here's a summary of why I picked this. Well, Samurott has good STAB moves. Like Hydro Pump. It also has high attack/special attack. As you see, the move "Megahorn" has a good coverage for Grass. Use that move with Bug Gem and you'll be fine with Grass. Now the moves below. Megahorn - A good move for coverage of Grass, this move will be very useful. Surf - STAB. A good move, tied with Waterfall. Waterfall - STAB. Another good move, tied with Surf. Ice Beam - It's good like Megahorn, depending if you have Modest, use this move for coverage for Grass. optional - Dig - Coverage for Electric Cofagrigus the Protection One Well, I have nothing to say but Cofagrigus is a good defense Pokemon. Now the summary. Cofagrigus is a awesome defense Pokemon. Also, it is good at Special Attack, this is useful for Mienshao, from triple or doubles. Well, all I have to say. Now for the moves. Shadow Ball - STAB. A great move. Also great for Cofagrigus due to Special Attack. Energy Ball - This is good, but use this for protection for the team in double/triple battles. Protect - This is pretty good, just useful if your 25% or lesser HP. Psychic - This is also good, like for Energy Ball, protection in double/triple battles. Zoroark the Special Sneak Well, this is my favorite Pokemon for Dark. As you see, this is a good special attacker, like psychic types. But more powerful. Attack moves are useless on this guy. I hear this, "Uhhh, I have Sucker Punch on my Zoroark, it's strong." Yeah, well, it's useless. Now, the summary. I chose this dude because of it's power, y'know. It's very useful due to Dark Pulse and Nasty Plot. Zoroark is also rare. But in BW2, it's common because some guy gives it to you. I forgot the name. Now the moves. Dark Pulse - It's very good, this is a example for "a good move." It's STAB is excellent, it's special, this is a perfect move for Zoroark. Unless you have Adamant. Nasty Plot - A good stat move for Zoroark due to Dark Pulse. Makes Dark Pulse awesome. Night Daze - Good also, same like Dark Pulse but alittle bit less. STAB Flamethrower - This move is also excellent. This protects you from Dark's danger, Bug. Dragonite the Fly Dragonite is awesome. It's nearly close to Zoroark. Like this dude, this one is pro. Good Air moves to. Now to the summary. I chose this due to Fly. It shall be chosen because it's strong. Like I said, these Pokemon were in my team. Dragonite gave me a big help. In the second run of Elite Four, I got damaged , barely any Pokemon were alive. But Dragonite was support. Then when I used Outrage + Dragon Dance, it was positively awesome. Now end of story to moves! Outrage - A awesome move, like the story I have said. STAB Dragon Dance - A awesome move also, Outrage + Dragon Dance is excellent. Fire Punch - Fire Punch is good. Coverage for Ice is excellent. Fly - Important HM. STAB. Mienshao the Combative Winner Mienshao is silimar to a teacher I've met, Ms.Miensho. I don't wanna do a summary now. So. To the moves. Hi Jump Kick - STAB. My favorite moves and is very strong. U-Turn - Coverage for Psychic. A awesome move. Stone Edge - Coverage for Flying. It's also a good move. Drain Punch - Hey, this makes a good emergency healing move. STAB. Eelektross the Strong One No summary but all I have to say is, this Pokemon is very strong and good special attack/attack Pokemon. To the moves! Volt Switch - It's awesome, thanks to Elesa, it showed off it's true power. STAB ThunderPunch - STAB. Awesome also but some power but strong move. Discharge - I know, to much electric moves but STAB makes it strong. if you lose Levitate this move is good Aqua Tail - It's good when you lost levitate. Now the end. P.S I hope this is useful to you. answered May 29, 2013 by inferapemaster edited May 29, 2013 by Pokemaster Give an alteritive Fighting type for Mienshao because it's hard to get Meinshao. commented Jun 21, 2014 by HenryWong122 Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes I think a GREAT team is...

Mine KO'd Black Kyurem with Rock Blast. It has good type coverage, and you can get one with an ability Skill Link in a Hidden Grotto. STAB Tail Slap, Wake-Up Slap Steel, Rock, Ground, and Dark types, Sing is for Wake-Up Slap, Rock Blast for Flying and Electric types. Overall good type coverage. Excadrill @ Soft Sand, Air Balloon Ability: Sand Force (Boosts Steel, Rock and Ground type moves during a Sandstorm) Moves: Sandstorm, Drill Run, Earthquake, Stone Edge Good Sweeper, fast, but not that fast. Sandstorm is to activate the ability. Drill Run and Earthquake is STAB. Stone edge is for coverage. It has good attack and average speed, so it is a deadly sweeper. Magnezone @ Magnet Ability: Sturdy Moves: Discharge, Thunder wave, Flash Cannon, Protect Good Wall and Crippler. Discharge is STAB, Flash Cannon too, Protect is for coverage, and Thunder wave is for a Status Effect. Magnezone is a good Wall, and Staller. It has good Defenses, plus Sturdy ability means that it can't be knocked out with one hit. Overall good addition for your team. Lucario @ Any Item Ability: Inner Focus or Steadfast Moves: Iron Tail, Close Combat, ExtremeSpeed, Swords Dance Swords Dance is for raising your attack and compliments ExtremeSpeed and making a deadly Close Combat. Close Combat is for STAB, Extremespeed is deadly with a maxed out Attack. Iron Tail is STAB and deadly with Swords Dance. Lilligant @ Miracle Seed Ability: Own Tempo Moves: Petal Dance, Synthesis, Leech Seed, Giga Drain Lilligant is simply the best. With Petal Dance and its ability Own Tempo, it rules the field. Miracle Seed Boosts the power of its attacks, and its health sucking attacks will leave you with a chance to regenerate any time. Petal Dance and Giga Drain is STAB, and Leech Seed is for health. Synthesis is for recovery too. Hydreigon @ Any Item Ability: Levitate Moves: Dragon Pulse/Draco Meteor, Work Up, Rock Slide, Dark Pulse A Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon, this is one of the best Pokemon out there. It has all rounded Attack and Sp. Atk, and a great movepool, its a deadly addition to your team. Rock Slide is coverage, Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse is STAB, Dark Pulse is STAB too, and Work up is to prepare/recharge after Draco Meteor. answered Jul 9, 2013 by daguy122 Two fighting types and three steel types? commented Sep 22, 2013 by Airika Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Samurott: Move # 1. Surf (HM) Move # 2. Waterfall (HM) Move # 3. Mega-horn (Move Tutor) Move # 4. Ice Beam or Blizzard (TM) Sp. Attacker Lucario: Move # 1. Force Palm (Lower Levels) or Aura Sphere (Lv. 51) Move # 2. Strength (HM) Move # 3. Dig or Earthquake (TM) Move # 4. Shadow Claw, Psychic, Ice Punch or any other good move. (Depends) An interesting type and a variety of moves when evolved from Riolu) Swoobat: Move # 1. Psychic (TM) Move # 2. Fly (HM) Move # 3. Signal Beam (Move Tutor) Move # 4. Energy Ball (TM) Its evolution may be delayed but its pretty good when fighting Burgh, Clay and Marlon with it's interesting moveset. Chandelure: Move # 1. Overheat (TM) Move # 2. Energy Ball (TM) Move # 3. Shadow Ball (TM) Move # 4. Psychic (TM) If your Chandelure doesn't a loss of Sp. Atk, use Flame Charge or Fire Blast instead.

Haxorus @ Dragon Fang Ability: Rivalry Nature: Timid (Attack+) (Speed-) Moveset: -Outrage -Dragon Claw -Dragon Dance -X-Scissor Haxorus is this team attacker. It has mostly Dragon-type attacks because they are powerful. But X-scissor is on the moveset because it's powerful and it can deal pretty good amount of damage to Dark-type Pokemon. Dragon Fang boosts power of Dragon-type attacks. Aggron @ Quick Claw Ability: Rock Head Nature: Adamant (Attack-) (Sp.Atk+) Moveset: -Iron Head/Iron Tail -Double-Edge -Autotomize -Proctect Aggron is pretty useful for E4. If your other Pokemon faint you can revive it without getting this Pokemon faint. If you have ability Heavy Metal replace Autotomize with Heavy Slam. If you give Quick Claw this may move faster than other Pokemon. Iron Head is powerful move. Protect is pretty useful move for making the battle more longer. Autotomize helps dealing Pokemon with good defense if combined with Iron Head or -Tail. Omastar @ Leftovers Ability: Weak Armor Nature: Bashful (Neutral) Moveset: -Surf -Waterfall -Ice Beam -Stealth Rocks or Earth Power Omastar is pretty hard to get before E4. Only way to get it is trading or Dream world. It's pretty good on defense and Sp.Atk. It's pretty much HM slave, but you may forget Dive if you teach it to this Pokemon after you explored Abyssal Ruins in PWT exchange for 1 Heart Scale. Ice beam deals Grass-types if you are faster than them.=9 Alttaria @ Draco Plate Ability: Natural Cure Nature: Serious (Neutral) Moveset: -Dragon Dance -Dragon Claw -Fly -Outrage Alttaria is pretty good Pokemon because it learns lot of moves that are pretty useful. Like Ice Beam. I didn't put Draco Meteor for this moveset because it has negative effects. And I don't like that move. This pretty balanced Pokemon. Lilligant @ Miracle Seed Ability: Own Tempo Nature: Calm (Attack+) (Sp.Def-) Moveset: -Energy Ball -Giga Drain or Dream Eater -Quiver Dance -Petal Dance Lilligant is pretty nice Pokemon. It has good Sp.Atk, Speed and HP. Defense is high too. Dream Eater is on the moveset, because it's good when combined with Parasects Spore. Petal Dance doesn't confuse you if you have Own Tempo, so it's killer combo. Parasect @ Life Orb Ability: Damp Nature: Adamant (Atk-) (Sp.Atk+) Moveset: -Cross Poison -Giga Drain -Synthesis -Spore Parasect is only available with trading or in Dream World if you want it before E4. Parasects Spore + Lilligants Dream Eater. Perfect! This team has two Grass-type Pokemon. Pretty good team after all. I recommend this team if you have Dream World available. answered Jul 14, 2013 by JeiPii Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Samurott @ Leftovers Trait: Torrent Nature: Mild (+SpAtk, -Def) Surf Ice Beam Megahorn Revenge A nice moveset for a Pokemon with good attack and special attack power, STAB towards the already powerful surf, and good coverage. The Life Orb can be used for taking out enemies quickly. Chandelure @ Choice Specs/Choice Scarf Trait: Flash Fire Nature: Modest (+SpAtk, -Atk) Flamethrower (Simply more reliable and accurate than Fire Blast. Overall the best Fire-Type move) Energy Ball Psychic Shadow Ball or Spite (Spite is not recommended) Chandelure is a absolute MONSTER when it comes to special attack. A whopping 145 Special attack base stats total! Well rounded moves that have good coverage against some very strong types like Fighting, Ground, and Water. Mr. Mime @ Magnet Calm Mind Baton Pass Psychic Thunderbolt Trait: Filter Nature: Modest (+SpAtk, -Atk) While Psychic is uneccesary and Thunderbolt can be useful, the REAL reason Mr. Mime is here is because if you use Calm Mind in conjuction with Baton Pass and switch in to Chandelure, who already has insane Special attack power, Pokemon will be a whole lot easier for you. Feel free the change Psychic into any move you wish, But it just depends on your timing when using that combo. Filter can really help with that matter, as it wil help you survive some super effective moves. Lucario @ Expert Belt Trait: Inner Focus Nature: Naughty (+Atk, -SpDef) Aura Sphere Shadow Claw Dragon Pulse Earthquake Half Special, Half Physical. The goal is usually to make the most well-rounded moveset possible. I covers against Dark, Rock, Ground, Steel, Ice, Psychic, Ghost, Dragon, and Poison. It complements the Expert Belt nicely, an item the boosts super effective hits by 20%. Lucario has good enough attack and special attack power to sweep against 3 of the Elite Four's Pokemon. Inner Focus will not come into play if you flinch with Focus punch though, So don't get to cocky and replace Aura Sphere with it. Braviary @ Life Orb Trait: Sheer Force Nature: Lonely (+Atk, -Def) Bulk Up Superpower Brave Bird Rock Slide Due to Sheer Force, the Life Orb will not give you recoil damage. That's a 30% Boost in all your moves for free! Bulk Up takes care of the detrimental effects from Superpower, which, in my opinion, make Superpower even more reliable than Close Combat. Brave Bird is powerful 120 power move that gets a 30% boost, plus STAB, to sweep Bug and Grass-Types. Sheer Force will also make Rock slide more powerful, at the cost of removing its flinching effect, plus the 30% boost, A secondary coverage against the dreaded Ice-Types, like Black Kyurem, who has the second highest Attack stats EVER, and his signature 140 power move, Freeze Shock. Hydreigon @ IDK Trait: Levitate Nature: Modest (+SpAtk, -Atk) Dragon Pulse Flamethrower Crunch U-Turn or Earthquake All a basic set for a strong pseudo-legendary. Dragon pulse for Dragons, Flamethrower for Grass and Bug, Crunch for Psychic and Ghost, And U-Turn for Dark. answered Aug 7, 2013 by TheShadowingLight Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes I am not going to put sprites, just the Pokemons, movesets,natures and explanation Note:To make a balanced team,Have one fire,one water.one grass,one flying,one electric,one type of your choice(mostly a dragon slot) Chandelure-Mild/Rash Nature -Fire Blast/Overheat -Shadow Ball -Signal Beam -Energy Ball Fire blast/Overheat and Shadow ball gains STAB,Signal beam and Energy Ball for coverage Starmie-Quiet/Modest -Surf -Thunderbolt -Ice Beam -Hyper Beam Your surfer, Surf gains STAB,Ice Beam for coverage and Thunderbolt and Hyper beam for power Whimsicott-Timid/Modest/Quiet -Grass Knot/Energy Ball -Hurricane -U-turn -Psychic Grass Knot/Energy Ball for STAB,Hurricane and Psychic for coverage and U-turn for switching Archeops-Any Attack type Boosting Nature -Fly -Earthquake -Rock Slide/Stone Edge -Dragon Claw Your flyer,Fly and Rock Slide/Stone Edge gains STAB, Earthquake for coverage,Dragon claw for annoying Dragons Galvantula-Modest/Timid -Thunder -Bug Buzz -Energy Ball -Signal Beam Thunder,Bug buzz and Signal beam are STAB,Galvantula's compoundeyes takes care of thunder's low accuracy and Energy Ball for coverage Shiny Haxorus-Any Attack type Boosting Nature -Outrage -Earthquake -Brick Break -Dragon Claw *Outrage and Dragon Claw for gaining STAB,Brick Break for coverage and Earthquake for power * Hope I helped answered Aug 22, 2013 by KTThree You may also keep your starter, just replace one pokemon of it's type commented Aug 23, 2013 by KTThree Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Yes, I know I aready have posted a team with serperior as starter but I just think this team is so good (hopefully it's allowed to post many teams).

Lapsang Souchong Loose Tea
Item Code: 301473 / Net weight: 100g / 3.53oz
Free delivery over £40
In stock
100% Black Tea
Packed in an environment where nuts are handled.
Brew a Perfect Cup
Ideally warm the pot first with a splash of hot water. Use one teaspoon (around 2g) per cup and always use freshly drawn and boiled water. Allow to brew for 3-5 minutes according to taste. Can be drunk with or without milk.
Coffee is normally my drink. I always refuse tea as a drink. However my wife suggested I gave this blend a try. The flavour is nothing like I was expecting. To my a lovely earthy flavour and I am now hooked. It's a refreshing change from my normal coffee. Love it.
I tried this and was not a fan, Tasted like burnt food, :( You know.. you burn something and think, Oh well I can eat around it, But then find out the food has that burnt taste to it..
Out of all the lapsang souchongs I've tried this definitely has the richest, most intriguing flavour. Rather than a plain smoky aroma the smoke has a hint of sweetness on an overall savoury flavour reminscient of a grilled meal, almost like a pu-erh. Lovely with milk too; the flavour isn't lost at all.
