Still love this tea – it gives long evolving sessions with lots of complexity, early on it is more bitter with an expansive and fragrant aftertaste, later just really sweet with a hint of sourness.
The dry leaf aroma reminds me of honey, tangerine, pitahaya, corn, and hay. From the wet leaves I picked up also hints of mushrooms and vanilla.
The taste is sweet and wood with a dry grass quality to it early on. Steeps 3 to 6 have quite decent woody and gin-like bitternes as well as flavours of bell peppers, autumn leaf pile, allspice, bourbon, and acorn.
The aftertaste then brings further notes such as sugar, moss, pinecone, chicken meat, and cinnamon to name a few.
