Made from wild-growing plants of the Mei Zhan varietal, Colorful Peony has a richer, fuller flavor than the more familiar White Peony. The large, dramatically shaded leaves have a confectionary sweetness, with a fruity nip recalling candy or chewing gum. After rinsing, the aroma becomes even darker, sweeter, and more intense, offering hints of cinnamon and cardamom. The infused liquor is medium-bodied, with honey, dry grass, and toffee building into a sweet, spicy finish. This is a truly unique tea, and also very easy to like.
