A complex yet not entirely unexpected 1st flush.
The leaves smell of dry apricot when you open the bag, which indeed translates to the palate in the same sweet note tending towards toffee as the brew cools. In a quirky yet pleasing fashion, asparagus and praline fight for dominance to the nose . Mild astringency with a fresh aftertaste, which doesn’t age gracefully if you leave your cup for a while.

Preparation
185 °F / 85 °C 3 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 7 OZ / 200 ML

Hi, I am a tea lover since always and a tea professional since 2012.
I drink any colour of tea, scented or not, although I still can’t get used to smoked tea. I am also curious about the history and economy of tea around the word.
I currently work for Dammann Frères as a salesperson, but my views do not reflect that of my company. I intend to start a workshop/training activity around tea this fall (more details to come!).
Thanks for reading :)
