This rich black tea is one of our favorites from China. The tea resembles gunpowder teas, but is darked and bolder in flavor. Try a delicious cup to wake you right up.

This is a truly unique black and I don’t think I could compare it to any other tea I have ever had before.
DRY AROMA – it smells very new – very fresh – almost like when you buy a new jacket!
Post infusion aroma – almost smells like toast and maybe cocoa or something…it’s very hard to explain but it’s very different!
Color – is a lighter to light-medium brown…again, very unique
Taste -
Again, very hard to describe but I will try…
It almost tastes like a black tea and oolong blend/mix. It has ever-so-slight woodsy undertones and is fairly sweet. It has a lighter to light-medium black tea taste, I suppose!
This looks like it would be good for multiple infusions so I am going to try it!
I guess as an afterthought this does have a nice perfume type aroma to it as well – not floral – but something I would like a room to smell like, I guess!
Stay tuned for more notes on this one!!!
Filing this under “stuff-I-forgot-I-had-in-my-possession”. This looked very much like a Golden Bi Luo Chun – smelled like it, too. The leaves were darker, though. However, they were rolled in the same, adorable, snail-like way. Brew-wise, this actually had a lot more in common with heavier Dian Hongs, which I didn’t mind. It was woody, sweet, slightly malty, and imparting a bit of cocoa nib-like loveliness. A happy accident.
