This tea is from 2015, and I have to say it is pretty solid. I am not really a fan of Phoenix Wu Longs. I find no great flaws in them, but they dont get me excited. I find them a little to perfumey and thin. I bought Tea Drunk’s Zhi Lan Xiang cause I knew the cultivar was a little stronger than other Feng Huangs.
This medium roasted tea is quite nice. With a medium body, I describe this tea as having a squash/pumpkin taste. The fact it is a feng huang does add a little bitterness and texture, but this compliments nicely with the simple full flavor.
I would probably rate this tea higher, but since I am not a feng huang fan my bias comes into play.

This is one of my favorite teas. I like this version better than their 2014. (The 2014 is still very good.)
This tea is freshing and sweet which gives it an overall cucumber sort of taste. When you dive into it a bit you taste a great honey comb flavor. To be clear I dont mean honey I mean honey comb, so its honey sweet but there is a waxy nuttiness too. Very clean finish. It subtle but there is a lot of flavor. Near perfection.

A solid Yellow tea
A strong pea note, a little vegetal with a nutty touch.
It had all the characteristics one would find in a yellow tea, but none of the refinement of a good yellow tea.
The body was a little thick for me, it wasn’t very refreshing. It also did not leave a nice feeling in my mouth afterwards.

This tea will change everything you know about white tea.
A soft but full body, this tea reminds me of a pu er. If raw pu er was a beautiful lady it would be this tea.
There is a soft flavor of woodsy mixed with dark caramel. A touch of fruityness and a full aroma.

After drinking this tea you will never call white tea soft and subtle again, but you’ll love it even more.

What a great tea
This tea has a solid roast with out being too heavy.
You can see taste the Tie Guan Yin in this tea in it’s floral metallic secondary taste.
The tea leaves a satisfying warm after taste.
