drank Traditional Process Dian Hong Black tea of Feng Qing * Spring 2018 by Yunnan Sourcing
226 tasting notes

This is a tea without any flaws and any strengths. It looks good, it smells good, it has a large amount of golden tips. The taste is a very typical for a Dian Hong: bitter-sweet chocolate, malt, honey. Mild. Some moderately long chocolaty aftertaste.

No one will be disappointed by drinking it but nobody will get excited either: this tea is super generic and lacks any character. It’s inexpensive and thus potentially can be designated as a daily drinker Dian Hong, but I want more personality even in my daily drinkers.

Flavors: Chocolate, Honey, Malt

Bio

I like to drink teas to recreate a specific mood, or just to take a break at work. The world of tea is so endless, patiently waiting for exploration and rewarding you in many ways big and small.

I am looking forward to years of playing with tea leaves, gaiwans, cups, and YouTube videos.

My ratings:

90 or more – a very good/excellent tea, I can see myself ordering it again.

80-89 – it is a good tea, I enjoyed it but not enough to reorder.

70-79 – an OK, drinkable tea but there are certainly much better options even in the same class/type.

60-69 – this tea has such major flaws that you have to force yourself to finish what you ordered.

<60 – truly horrible teas that must be avoided at all costs.
