The unspeakable bliss found only in dreams: the poetry of a whimsical journey, a longing for pleasure to reveal itself, and the thrill of crossing into the unknown. Delighting the senses, it materializes as an undiscovered composition of grand teas – white, green and blue from Nepal, India as well as China – scattered with liquorice root and ginger. One closes their eyes and dreams become reality.
The nose is marked by an enchanting floral aroma and a heady note of sandalwood, reminiscent of precious incense. The liquor, a brilliant golden yellow, captivates with its airy texture, round body and mollifying Zen spirit, and delights the palate with light zesty notes of mandarin and white flowers (tilia, acacia) topped by the magnificent and lingering hints of tasty liquorice.
As irresistible as a forbidden fruit.
Company description not available.
This is a blend of white, green, and oolong tea, with ginger and liquorice root. As you can imagine, dry leaves give off a rather complex aroma, full of subtleties. Sweet-ish and gingery. As for the taste, well… The liquorice root doesn’t really enter the equation at that point. Ginger does, but it’s never as strong as in Indian Chai, or similar spicy drinks.
As for the actual tea, well, if you’re lucky, brewing this at high temperature you may get a yummy gingery drink, with translucent liquor. And a lower temperature, around 75 degrees C, may deliver to you a very gentle, sweet cup, like a complex white tea with very subtle floral notes. Trouble is, if you’re unlucky, you’ll just get a very average, light green tea with ginger, a very poor green version of Chai.
So, an interesting and somewhat strange blend, but its worth a try if you like conducting experiments every now and then. It may also yield interesting results when brewed gongfu style, something I haven’t tried with this tea yet.
