Rinsed once this fellow developed such an intense fruity thick honey-ish scent – breath taking! This scents really stick to nearly everything around you – it manifest within your nose, later in your mouth and the air surrounding your tea session. Aroma of honey, magnolia delivered with a big fruit basket of juicy fresh mango, lychee and a hint of pineapple also left some space for a very nutty fusion of pine nuts and hazelnut. Especially within the taste this nutty a bit harsh mineral tone prepared the ground for a very VERY long lasting fruity sweet aftertaste experience which stick to your tasting buds for a very long time. Like I mentioned this pine nuts and hazelnut taste was one side of the coin but the other side definitely was a mix between raisins, honey-beeswax flavor, magnolia, mango and Japanese sweet soft bread. That’s it and it is totally enough because all those nuances are very well balanced and they play their parts perfectly without any off-time to it. Take it easy you can at least enjoy it for around 7 infusions – with Chao Zhou style even 12 or more.

Bio
Ahoi,
I am a tea taster and tea-blog author from Vienna. Since my early Childhood days I was always drawn to East Asian culture especially China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. It wasn’t a thing I discovered because of my parents or my environment – it was a thing that started on its own and spread its antennas into nearly every direction what Asian culture could deliver.
I felt in love with their history, movies, Tv-Shows, food, Anime, Videogames, tea culture – nearly everything. 2009 was the first time I visited Japan – it was a feeling of finally being home. Since that time I developed such a passion for tea because tea combines so many aspects I love. Taking photos, writing, Asian culture, the connection to mother nature and its history, the love for craftsmanship (Teaware etc).
Within 2013 I started my teablog called ZeroZen(https://zeroteazen.wordpress.com/) – the first couple of years I only posted content in my mother language German. But within 2016 I discovered Instagram for myself and found the perfect medium for my artistic output which is now completely and exclusive in English ^___~
