98
drank Yixing Hong Cha by Nannuoshan
7 tasting notes

I hesitated to give a score that high. But, being the best black tea I have ever tasted, a 98 it seemed to make his case. Leaving two points from the 100 just because it can always improve!
Why I like it so much? First, it smells incredibly sweet and rich. The colour of the infusion is a rich reddish, lighter then I was expecting. The taste is smooth and brisk and the aftertaste lasts for a long time. I had it for breakfast and matched very well with fruits jam and biscuits :-)

Flavors: Caramel, Smooth

Preparation
195 °F / 90 °C 3 min, 0 sec 6 g 17 OZ / 500 ML

Bio

Artist and tea lover. I drink especially teas from China and Japan and I prefer non-flavored tea. My passion for tea has become stronger since my 2-months trip to Japan, last year, where I was drinking only loose leaf teas from the morning until the evening. I’m now curious to discover more about the different kind of teas and tastes.
