Wow. This tea has awesome mouthfeel. Very creamy with a little astringency on the back end. I think I didn’t use enough leaf, because the flavors are very delicate. What I can get is lemony and floral. Slightly nutty.
I’m enjoying this very much. I think I may need some more of this after I finish off this sample. And I definitely need to play with the leaf amounts.
I’ve got a lot of interests: sushi, science fiction/fantasy, medieval recreation, cooking (specifically medieval cooking), reading, British science fiction (Doctor Who!), hand sewing and now TEA!!
My favorites tend to be oolongs and flavored black teas. I like highly flavored teas more than delicate ones. Rooibos tends to taste like dirt to me, and hibiscus is very sour to my palate. But I’m always up to try all sorts of things, and will often find things that I really like which I thought I’d hate.
