Here’s the deal about my review on this tea: Repave was the first and only sheng that I’ve had from W2T before drinking this.
Unfortunately this one was too strong for me. The bitter notes came through, not strong but they dried out my mouth by the 10th steep…. now I kept going because I really wanted to enjoy this tea since I can see how beautiful the leaf is. It’s possible that this one may need a few years before I can enjoy it… oh well, I’m impatient and ordering a sample of Last Thoughts; maybe it’ll rival Repave.
one of the strongest… not for the faint of taste buds…
Perhaps you are brewing it for too long?
This one is very very punchy
@tea123 – check out Cwyn’s tasting mote on it. It’s my favorite tea review of all time
