From Bitterleaf Teas

While previous versions of this tea used Wuye varetial material, this year’s tea comes from Yashixiang/Duck Shit xuepian (winter leaf). The comparatively reduced bitterness of the Yashixiang, along with a thicker, more buttery texture, made it an easy choice in terms of staying loyal to this tea’s character.

Most importantly, this tea maintains the same salted caramel flavour that always makes Double Scoop one of our favourite Dancong of the year.

Please note that the 250g size does not include a tin.

Way too floral for me, but at least that dies down after a steep or two. I wish I could get more of the sweeter notes that I expected, but at least the creamy, buttery finish comes through. I still think it’s an excellent tea that holds up over many steeps and has nice flavor development, it’s just not my favorite.

Floral bomb. A whole bouquet of flowers in the aroma and taste. Lilies, gardenias, rose perfume, fresh rain, pine forest, strawberry candy, freeze dried raspberries, green pear, jasmine, pistachios, and steamed white rice. Elegant, confident, powerfully full-flavored and floral. Like a rich, sophisticated, impeccably dressed woman with expensive old perfume that smells of roses and the humid green jungle. This is a tea of remarkable quality and refinement.
