2025 sipdown no. 19
This is very close to a high mountain black with waffle-y sweetness and an incredibly smooth body. There’s little to no maltiness, though it creeps in slightly as the tea cools. This is delightfully sweet, so much so that I would choose this over the Mi Xiang black (in a dire situation where not both could be ordered). The resteep of this had a decent amount of flavour as well.
1st steep 2 minutes, 30 seconds

Yay waffle tea!
