drank 2003 Zi Pin 紫聘 by Wistaria
292 tasting notes

finishing zipin bing hole sample to chase away the bugs after holiday travel. ended up being a bit too strong though and felt a little dizzy after.

5.3g, 90 mL ZZZ, mixed water

wet: smoky, vegetal, sweet, BBQ, mint

1. smoky, bitter, resolves to sweet floral finish but still a bit pond water tasting

2. medicinal

3. lingering fruity note but upfront pill like bitterness

was distracted after but steeped a couple more times before the tea was mostly dead. some warmth, but this was after a turbulent morning flight and was already sort of nauseous to start.

Just a chronicle of a stranger’s tea journey. Keeping old notes up to see progression, but no longer really believe in all of them. Trying to learn!! Weekend warrior mostly now; work is tough.

As of 4/21/21, I will no longer assign numerical ratings to a tea unless it is terrible enough to warrant one. There are a fair amount of solid teas out there, and reading mildly subjective reviews from others > very subjective numerical rating that gets skewed by Steepster’s calculating system anyway.
