I had a hot cuppa this morning, and, while I didn’t completely love it, I couldn’t stop drinking it either. It was just so…intriguing. I don’t think I’ve ever had a tea with a Golden Yunnan base, so I didn’t really have a point of reference.
The dry leaf smells incredible. The citrus really hits you in the face. I managed to get a cherry in my teaspoon, but the flavor didn’t quite translate to my cup the way I’d hoped it would. The tea itself was very malty but smooth, and the lemon really added a lovely sour kick. The cherry was more of a vague fruity note after the sourness subsided.
I’m going to reserve judgment on this blend until I try it iced or cold, as I would an actual whiskey sour.
Flavors: Lemon, Malt, Pleasantly Sour
