Togo drank 2020 Wilder Gushu Yunxian Hong Cha by Laifufu

947 tasting notes

This black tea has a superb relaxing qi and steeps for a really long time. The mouthfeel is quite smooth and lightly effervescent, but not overly thick.

There are aromas of stonefruits, wood, and vanilla emerging from the dry leaves. The liquor is bitter and herbaceous with a sour bite and sugarcane sweetness. I also found notes of bourbon, yeast, tree sap and moss. The aftertaste is quite biting and pleasantly cooling too.

Hi, I am a researcher in math, physics and computer science. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds. Connect at https://rateyourmusic.com/~Togo

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
