999 tasting notes

Not the most exciting tea, but it is well balanced and one you can count on. It tastes mostly sweet and woody with a pencil shaving note. The aroma has notes of caramel and chicken mcnuggets before the rinse and of lamb, cocoa, and lentils afterwards. However, what really differentiates it from similarly simple black teas is its smooth and creamy mouthfeel which is very nice.

Flavors: Beany, Cacao, Caramel, Cocoa, Meat, Wood

Thank you for saying “pencil shaving” in your note. I taste this in tea and black cumin, which is nigella sativa. Is it cedar wood?

chicken mcnuggets – the panicking five year old in my brain is missing them.

Hi, I am a researcher in math, physics and computer science. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds. Connect at https://rateyourmusic.com/~Togo

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
