This are gorgeous, although blacker than they look in the photograph. Two of these in a gaiwan, steeped gong fu, saved me after a rough day and a raging headache. There is something about taking the time to steep them thoroughly, watching them unfurl, that is supremely soothing. Sweet, malty, chocolaty and smooth, with no astringency, even on longer steeps (although it can have a dark chocolate bitterness to it), this tea is almost too good to share. Like a piece of chocolate that you sneak when nobody’s looking.

Bio

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.
