This is a tasty ripe from Berylleb King Tea. There is pretty much no fermentation flavor to it. At least I didn’t find any. Today I brewed this more or less Asian style but few steepings in a big 250g glass teapot. The write up on this tea says it has Longan fruit taste. There was a distinct fruity tasty to this tea. As to whether that is Longan fruit I don’t know because I have never had Longan fruit. I didn’t notice the notes of chocolate that people are forever looking for in ripe tea but it was good. An added note is that I didn’t taste any bitterness in this tea.

I brewed this three times in a 250ml glass teapot with 14g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse and brewed it for 5 sec, 5 sec, and 7 sec. The tea was nowhere near finished and I will probably save the leaves for later on today. This tea is unfortunately now out of stock. I was surprised to have to put it in the catalog as I know Liquid Pruast has already drank it.

Didn’t find any notes of cinnamon but that doesn’t mean they weren’t there.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
