I’ll note that I’m not too impressed with Darjeeling too often due to poor experiences in the past. However, Seven Essence has changed my mind completely. I sipped on this yesterday in the mid-afternoon. The tea lasted 4-5 infusions + Western brewed for 20 minutes after the gongfu session was finished. I thought that this tea was extremely complex and layered, beyond any Darjeeling tasted in the past! There were strong florals on the nose (lilacs & lavender) and a little touch of vanilla in the flavor. While these flavors remained throughout the session, I felt that it gave more uniqueness to the tea than previous experiences. The Western brewed method was muddled and not as fully flavored, but there was a slight taste of the florals in the mug.
Flavors: Lavender, Lilac, Vanilla
