This tea deserves a lower water temp. I began with 160, which I know is pretty low already, but it just didn’t do this tea any justice. Now at the lower temp, the flavors are popping a bit more. The osmanthus seems to be predominate. Mouth feel is very soft. Also bits of roasty notes as well as grassy and overcooked veggies. I’ve come into this one with a bit of a bias… The Laoshan (anything) from Verdant is fantastic and while this one is good I just don’t think it quite compares with the Laoshan green from Verdant.

I’m a purist but I will try a flavored as long as it doesn’t have artificial flavors.

I will drink any type and love to taste whatever I can get my hands on.

(Purple is not a type of tea it is a cultivar known as TRFK 306/1)
