Got this about a month ago from King Tea on Aliexpress. It is a nice ripe with little bitterness, a sweet note from the start and a fair amount of fermentation flavor. The fermentation flavor was not of the unpleasant sort and certainly not fishy. Not sure exactly how I would characterize the sweet note. This was overall a very good tea.

I steeped this ten times in a 195ml Silver Teapot with 15.4g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec,and 1 min. I could easily have gotten four or five more steeps out of the leaves but ten steeps in a 195ml teapot is a lot of tea.

Flavors: Earth, Sweet

Preparation
Boiling 15 g 7 OZ / 195 ML

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.
