drank Traditional Tieguanyin by Verdant Tea
1719 tasting notes

I put all my untried samples in the same box without thinking, so I am a little confused, but I think this came from CelebriTEA. She wrote Yummy :) on the packet and I would agree. The very strong wet leaf roasted scent had me a little nervous. Strangely the taste is nothing like the leaf scent. At first this is buttery, salty, savory. It does not remind me of kettle corn as it did others. This melts in to sweet and floral. The floral to me was green oolong not flowers but I liked it. Underneath the entire sip this has a nutty roastedness like the toasted rice in genmaicha. This is a good complex cup. Might even say it was Yummy :)
