From TheTea

2021 batch was made on our custom order.

Honestly, it’s the one of best Tie Luo Han we have ever had. Thick and multi-layered.

This tea deserves one’s attention for its stellar aroma if nothing else. There is so much to uncover there. Dry leaves smell of dried fruit, port wine, and earth. During the session, it becomes much more fruity and flowery.

On the other hand, I found the texture to be a bit boring for the most part. Nevertheless, the mouthfeel does have a pleasant numbing and tingling sensation. Also, after swallowing I detect a curious mixture of throat-warming and mouth-cooling sensation.

The taste is brothy and mineral at first. It has a touch of sourness that makes me think of coffee, but also a good umami. It can get quite bitter when brewed too long. The aftertaste is generally pretty strong and lasting. It is a bit abrasive and biting, and bring flavours of baked lemons and cherries.
