Mercuryhime drank Nonpareil Yunnan Dian Hong Black Tea by Teavivre

525 tasting notes

I love the smell of freshly brewed tea. I love the smell of the dry leaves. The warm heavy mug in your hands on a chilly morning. So lovely.

This particular tea is so comforting. Honey and autumn in the smell. Warm syrupy texture. So smooth! Reminds me of sugar in the raw.

Barely any taste lingers after the swallow, but I feel warm throughout now. If only I were home cuddled up with a pup instead of in this sterile office with all the useless politicking. I hate politics. I do really enjoy this tea though.

Bio

I came from a tea drinking family, but I never appreciated the different qualities and varieties of tea until older. All that time wasted! But I guess I needed to be mature enough to appreciate the tea experience. :)

My favorite teas are green oolongs and white tea. I also love greens, especially gyokuro. I have a huge appreciation for rooibos and honeybush as they are often that only thing I can drink in the evening. I am a relatively new convert to black teas. This is unfortunate for my wallet but extremely wonderful for my palate. :)

In any case, I have a love for both flavored and unflavored teas. They are different experiences for sure, but both enjoyable. I find that it often depends on my mood.

I am on a quest to find a tea that will win my husband over. I think I’m making some headway…
