From white2tea

The 2019 Dripd O’Bitters is a blend of shu Puer tea with well aged chenpi. We selected an aged production of chenpi to accentuate the medicinal, bitter qualities of the blend with an aroma of deep citrus. The result is a rich, smooth concoction of shu Puer tea and chenpi that is likely different from any tea you have ever tried.

Each cake is 200 grams.

Gongfu!

Still sick, so I’m enjoying this sloppier session of stacked infusions. Thick, oily and medicinal are the stand out descriptors of this session. The heavy, heavy notes of bitter orange and camphorous earth are as enjoyable as they are soothing – which is, to say, very. I’m still hopeful that I’ll get to explore some new teas in the last few days of this holiday break, but this tour of sick tea’s “greatest hits” will suffice in the meantime…

I am a sucker for shou/citrus mixes, so the bias is here but I think that it is not just a pleasant tea but is also a stand-out in its class.

The pu-erh is solid: mild, smooth, no fishiness. The citrus certainly plays the leading role, though with clear notes of tar, pine needles and citrus zest. Some sweet maltiness in the background rounds it out.

Overall, it’s bracing, fresh and energizing, with a looong tarry aftertaste. This shou can stand to multiple steepings but could be fairly easily over-steeped.

Those who enjoy mild and the ever-changing complexity may find this tea too simplistic and overbearing, but I appreciate boldness and, unsurprisingly, liked this tea quite a bit.
