Advent Day 3
Sencha, oolong and red fruit. Okay! This does have a very red berry taste to it. It is a little creamy, no bite. I keep getting hints of something slightly roasted. I can’t quite pick out the red currant, it’s just an overall flavor of red fruit which is such a weird think when I think about it. Flavor association with colors! I know it’s normal for people with synesthesia, but it’s not something I’ve noticed my brain linking before. But back to the tea… I can’t quite ID the sencha or oolong, which probably means they are blended well together. This is an okay cup, not exciting enough for me to seek it out again.
Off to pick persimmons!

I think because “red fruits” as a concept is so common in French teas, I have an association with it as well ha ha.
Ah! Good point! I do love my French teas.
