This is a heavy roast yancha which seems difficult to come by these days. The roast is well done, and if this tea is from 2020, it’s had plenty of time to mellow. “Dark forest chicory-carob-mulberry” sums it up well. Plenty of texture between smooth and velvety, almost syrupy, and barky rasp. No fuss here just full flavor and aroma without a demanding aftertaste. I did several sessions at 6g:100mL but 5g does as well.

One of the first gifts my boyfriend gave me. He’s a good man that knows how to shop for a good tea.
