I am not much of a black tea person. I don’t do well with high astringency teas because they give me headaches, regardless of how tasty they might be. That is exactly why I love this tea.
It was actually the first Yunnan I knowingly had. No classic black bitterness to it at all. It’s got a lovely earthly taste, almost like a sweet sort of malt to it. I was sad when I got to the end of my tiny sampler tin of this. I just wanted to keep drinking it forever. I’ve had some other Yunnan’s that I’m pretty fond of, but this will forever hold a place in my heart as being my first.
