this was a very nice sample by the ever generous angel at teavivre.
this is a very smooth, warm blend. i think it’s impressive when the taste of a tea is warm over and above the temperature. has a decidedly black essence, but with a less heavy more rosy evolution.
lovely curled black gold yields a medium hued steep. lovely with cream and a bit of sugar.
i plan to buy this in future.

Have you had their regular Dian Hong? How does the golden tip compare? I’ve only had the regular, but it’s excellent.
