I received this as a free sample a while ago and I don’t quite know why I haven’t tried it before now.
The scent of the dry leaves is very soapy and the orange overwhelms the chrysanthemum. Hmm. Not a good sign.
The liqour is a very glossy dark brown but it still smells very soapy (I can smell the chrysanthemum a bit more now though).
I wanted so much to like this, but I just don’t. I love pu-erh and although I can taste a lovely pu-erh base, the flavouring tastes a bit like parma violets (which I really can’t stand). Pretty much everyone else seems to like it though – did I just get a bad batch? Hmm.
