Togo drank 2017 “Sweet Scent” Traditional Liu Bao Hei Cha by TheTea

1006 tasting notes

This is a relatively sweet liu bao with a thick, creamy, and coating texture. The liquor is clear and of a beautiful burgundy colour.

Dry leaf aroma has notes of wood, cherries and milk. After rinse I get a wild mixture of mushrooms, baked bread, caves and wet rocks, roasted walnuts, sumac, and a hint of leather.

The taste is mineral, nutty and earthy with a sweet bite to it. There are flavours of coriander seeds, molasses, butter on top of the earthy bittersweet ones.

Flavors: Bread, Cherry, Coriander Seed, Creamy, Earth, Leather, Milk, Mineral, Molasses, Mushrooms, Nutty, Roasted Nuts, Smooth, Sweet, Thick, Walnut, Wet Rocks, Wood

Preparation

Boiling 0 min, 15 sec 7 g 5 OZ / 140 ML

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.
