Medium steep: I taste/smell, light cream. Medium —→ cinnamon, basketballs , brand new nike shoes.

There must be some lapsang souchong in there. I love that tea.

Wet leaf: musty and smells like a black tea.

1x light rinse

Light steep: I taste/smell; light
—→musty, honey, spices, earth. I’m not sure if this is a sheng or a black tea. It has a funky name like a puerh would so, I’m thinking this is a sheng. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Medium steep: I taste/smell; medium funky —→ earth, musty, honey, spices. I’m Totally confused now.

Heav steep: I taste/smell; medium
—→ earth, honey, musty, spices.

Can someone please tell me what tea this is? It is lovely with a strong somewhat unpleasant cha qi. So I rate an 80

An awesome brew :) I taste strawberries, blueberries among other things. This stuff is like fine wine, champaign and apple cider all mixed togeather! So lovely. a great fermented tea!
