3 Tasting Notes
A surprising tea. In a good way.
Got this tea from a friend and was not expecting anything when trying it. A lot of things going on in terms of flavor, flowery and light, yet powerful. Reminded me a bit of Oriental Beauty for some reason.
A nice change to my usual rotation of Taiwanese teas.
And so much cheaper than its cousins in India! Yet so similar.
Another decent offering from TealifeHK! The traditional charcoal roast makes all the difference to similar offerings. Quite different profile compared to high roast TGY from Taiwan.
I would advise to use not too little leaf, otherwise it can not show its true potential.
As usual the sellers description are spot on.
I have ordered this tea twice already as it is a pretty decent daily drink. The description of the seller matches pretty exactly what I tasted as well.
It can be a bit rough, so a slightly muting teapot will benefit this tea and make it more balanced.
Needs to be steeped quickly.
