This has to be my favorite Yunnan black that I’ve ever had. This or perhaps the first batch of Golden Fleece I tried. The wet leaves have a bittersweet chocolate aroma that I didn’t remember from the first time, and I also didn’t remember how very smooth it is. It also has some slightly earthy almost mushroom like notes. Incredible tea!

Tea means so many things to me, it is so deep and it is revealing new meaning to me all the time.

Tea is a mindfulness practice, and a doorway through which to explore different philosophies, cultures, and historical times. Tea is hospitality and a way of communion. Tea is an art, a ritual, and a tradition. Tea is a complement to the foods I eat (preferably vegan desserts) and is something I enjoy collecting and curating.

I love to swap, or even just send people samples, so if there’s anything in my cupboard you’d like to try, just send me a message!
