Decided to drink this sample because I saw some other people reviewing this tea recently. The leaves for this tea looked very nice. The dry leaves had a sweet aroma, and after a rinse they smelled like sweet spices to me, perhaps cloves/nutmeg. This tea seemed to take off pretty quickly, as the first steep was very thick and sweet, with a mostly floral character. After that, some intense vegetal notes mixed with the floral flavor for quite a few steeps. Slight bitterness which didn’t last particularly long. The body of this tea was pretty intense throughout. The tea also yielded many lighter floral steeps at the end. This was a pretty interesting one, and glad that I got to sample it.

Bio

A bit about myself: 22 years old, college grad (Double major in Anthropology and History). I plan to make a career of archaeology and hopefully travel (much of) the world in my days.

I enjoy many things aside from tea, including gaming, mixing cocktails, reading, watching anime, and painting miniatures.

My favorite type of tea is sheng puerh. Particularly younger stuff, if only because I haven’t gotten the chance to taste much of anything aged. I also really like oolong (Taiwanese, Wuyi, Dancong, etc.) and Japanese Green Teas. I do also enjoy most other kinds of tea, but they aren’t what I normally buy. I’m not a huge fan of shou puerh, black tea, or flavored blends, with few exceptions.

I really like interacting with the tea community, so if you ever want to talk or swap teas or anything, feel free to shoot me a message or something. Follow me and I’ll follow you back. Probably ;)
