Thanks to TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this tea.
This is an excellent Yunnan Gold. It has a lovely complexity to it. It has a sweet tone that is quite honey-like, as well as some very intriguing smoky and spice notes, and an interesting cocoa note that weaves its way through the sip. It finishes with a somewhat strong, dry astringency and there is very little aftertaste. A very nice cuppa, indeed.
I am obsessed with tea!

I no longer write for the SororiTea Sisters but I am still the admin for the blog.

The reason I’m no longer writing for SororiTea Sisters is because I am now the Mad Tea Artist for 52Teas:
I’ll still be posting occasional reviews on teas here on Steepster, mostly backlogged reviews because I’m way behind on getting reviews posted. That’s why I’m keeping two accounts active at the current time – so that I can get those backlogged reviews posted.

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.
I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination, which is why I was very excited to be the Mad Tea Artist of 52Teas!
