Pretty good, definitely unique. It’s a mild black tea with some floral notes from the flowers within.
I have tried both western and Gongfu brewing. The flavors are consistent throughout and it will resteep 2 or 3 times like it says on the bag.
The nose is bright and sweet like a candy, it does have some marshmallow body to it with a lovely black tea malt in the liquor, no astringency. I’m more a fan of straight teas but this is a fun blend for those who like flavored teas every once and a while.
It’s a dessert tea for sure, but I had it for breakfast as a nice little treat.
Edit: With the right patience, leaf ratio, and Gongfu brewing time, this yielded 6 flavor-filled steeps which took me on a journey!

This is one of a couple I really like from AU. I haven’t gong fu’d it yet, I’ll have to give that a try.
I had an easy gaiwan travel set I carry to the park for tea with my mom so it just sorta happened. Really good result though! I think 7g was probably too much for 150ml and would step it down to 5g/150ml.
Oh, good tip, thank you.
