drank Hong Bi Luo by Kilogram Tea
4 tasting notes

A more expensive offering from Kilogram.

Brewed in a 100ml gaiwan with a few pinches of tea to cover the bottom sufficiently.

Aroma: Graham cracker, malty, malt o meal

1st infusion: intense graham cracker and malty notes. Very strong flavor. Slight honey sweetness with a very mild stone fruit finish.

No development of flavor after the 1st infusion. It’s goes off with a bang, then fizzles. Light body with a short finish. Subtle lasting sweetness after drinking.

A little disappointed because I would have expected a little more out of a tea costing $250/lb wholesale, but it’s not bad. Worth trying because the 1st infusion is very intense.
