I love this dian hong, it is delicate and powerful at the same time.

It is an aromatic tea with floral and fruity scent complementing ones more traditional for a black tea. Dry leaves smell of cookies and malt, while wet ones more like berries and fir.

The liquor is also flavourful and thick. It is at once, sweet, floral, and savoury. The aftertaste is also woody and quite cooling. Most intriguing notes include ones of black currants and moss, but the taste also has a lot in common with the classic dian hong.

Flavors: Berries, Black Currant, Chocolate, Cookie, Fir, Floral, Fruity, Malt, Moss, Sweet, Woody

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
