It was okay… Not anything to write home about, unfortunately. The aroma was amazing, however, the taste was a bit average. The only suggestion/tip I have is that it can be oversteeped very easily, so be careful with timing. Even after the third infusion, it was still really picky about steep time. It is definitly a tea that needs to be brewed in a gaiwan or a pot with a quick pour. I hope you enjoy!!

Bio

Wolf girl. Writer. Artist. Gamer. Geek.

I joined Steepster back in August of 2009. Since then, I have been lurking around shyly and taken it all in. Just recently, I decided to log all of the teas that I have in my cupboard and from there I decided to be a bit more active on the site!

I’m addicted to four things: Tea, wolves, indie perfume, and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

My favorite teas right now: Ming Hong and Halmonicha

Broadly speaking I also love: Most Chinese red teas, most Fujian oolongs, and balhyochas.

I’ve been drinking loose-leaf teas since childhood. I love everything from tieguanyin to gyokuro to a good British cuppa. I am looking forward to trying every tea type out there and building an extensive pu-erh library.
