Where to begin?
First…this is FAB!
But this is also DIFFERENT…but in a GOOD way! Here are my thoughts…
Most Yunnan Golden Buds I have tried are very strong – some cigar like, some super malty, some have even a grainy texture.
Verdant’s are smoother, creamier, not cigar-like – it’s sweeter and I can taste the honey notes the product description mentioned! It’s quite nice!
Multiple infusions!!!!!! More notes coming soon!

Thanks for the review! I know what you are talking about with those smokier profiles. I had the opposite issue- the first black tea I tried from Yunnan tasted like this one, and when I got back to America I was really surprised to see such dark Yunnan black. It is a great compliment to hear that this is a very different taste to you. One of the greatest joys of importing these teas is seeing other people discover something new that would otherwise have remained thousands of miles away and out of reach. Happy tasting!
