Skysamurai’s TTB Thank you!

Tea #5
So yup. Finally I took out plain tea. And after drinking it, I need to re-visit this one.
The aroma of dry leaf is interesting. Very floral — rose, with its peppery note that it can have sometimes. I tried my best to match their steeping parameters saying 190°F, however, I haven’t measured it.
Steeped for rather short though, only about 3 minutes — they suggest 4-5.
In taste all the aroma disappeared into lightly vegetal, stonefruits aroma and taste and pretty mouthcoating feeling. It was somehow simple and maybe too much easydrinking considering oolongs. I have been hoping for more.
It was simple afternoon drink. I won’t rate so far.
Flavors: Rose, Stonefruit, Vegetal
A very juicy tea. It has flavours of apricot and rose, leaning more floral in later steeps. Despite the fruit notes, it’s more savoury than sweet. The scent and aroma are both very floral and very strong.
Flavors: Apricot, Floral, Rose
