I’ve got about two, maybe three steepings left of this tea. A very unique black that is well worth adding to your cart on your next Yunnan Sourcing purchase. The tea is astringent, and the dry leaves remind me of Jin Jun Mei, but the flavour is closer to Golden Monkey than it is to Jin Jun Mei. There’s more of a sweet potato flavour to it than a nutty or chocolatey one. Works well as a post lunch/dinner tea.
Flavors: Sugarcane, Sweet Potatoes
An Israeli computer programmer with a passion for tea (mostly bought in yearly shopping sprees in the UK), particularly black, oolong and white. I don’t generally enjoy flavoured teas or herbal infusions, but if a tea sounds interesting and smells nice I’ll most definitely try it. I drink several cups of tea a day, usually one or two in the morning, another one after lunch and one or two in the evening. My favourite tea so far is Lao Cong Zi Ya from Norbu Tea, but I’m constantly trying new teas. Only in the past year have I branched into Pu’erh and non-roasted oolongs. Finding good tea in Israel is difficult, so I import most of my teas from yearly visits to London, or from online retailers. If you see something in my cupboard that sparks your interest and you would like to swap with me, then please message me. I’m almost always up for a swap.
