This was a pretty nice tea – I got a packet with around 7g…can’t remember if I paid for it or if it was tossed in as a freebie. The leaves had a sweet and floral smell with just a touch of peach.

The flavor, especially in the first few steeps, matched the aroma. Lots of high floral notes with a bit of peachy fruitiness to round out the flavor. Probably orchid for the floral, but I’m really still not too great at picking out individual floral flavors. After a few steeps, there was a bit of a milkiness working its way into the flavor, which I appreciated. There wasn’t a whole lot of bitterness, though some of the middle steeps did seem to fall a bit flat in the finish. Seems like it would be a good daily drinker for Dancong lovers as long as the price is right. Not particularly interesting or eye-opening, but tasty and easy to appreciate.

Bio

A bit about myself: 22 years old, college grad (Double major in Anthropology and History). I plan to make a career of archaeology and hopefully travel (much of) the world in my days.

I enjoy many things aside from tea, including gaming, mixing cocktails, reading, watching anime, and painting miniatures.

My favorite type of tea is sheng puerh. Particularly younger stuff, if only because I haven’t gotten the chance to taste much of anything aged. I also really like oolong (Taiwanese, Wuyi, Dancong, etc.) and Japanese Green Teas. I do also enjoy most other kinds of tea, but they aren’t what I normally buy. I’m not a huge fan of shou puerh, black tea, or flavored blends, with few exceptions.

I really like interacting with the tea community, so if you ever want to talk or swap teas or anything, feel free to shoot me a message or something. Follow me and I’ll follow you back. Probably ;)
