Charred wood, but not as woody as the Lumber Slut mini I tried yesterday. Brews darker than that one. Maybe some licorice. A little bit of dark chocolate. Some bitter edge, but not unpleasant. Some brown sugar sweetness. I find it most like a basic cup of coffee, flavor-wise. Reminds me of a Folgers brew or something like that. Nothing really pops. Smells like a pile of mildewed towels.

Shou is not my favorite type of tea, though, so don’t take my opinion too seriously on this. I do appreciate some of them. Sometimes a good change of pace for me.

This mini weighed in at 6.97 grams on my kitchen scale.

I love tea. Mainly Chinese teas, such as Keemuns, Shui Xian oolongs when I can find/afford them, Yunnan golden buds, and delicate spring greens. With so many options, though, I keep trying new teas.
