I’ve wanted to try these for a long time and now I finally can!
The smell is very gentle and soft, kind of a mix between silkiness and malty tones (if that makes sense).
The taste. on the other hand, ditches the silkiness and dives into the malty-chocolatey-goodness. It vaguely reminds me of Bailin Gonfu black, but I think that’s just me. This tea leaves a nice tingling sensation after every sip, I tried it both with and without sugar – and I suppose I’ll be drinking this one with a tiny bit of sugar in the future, just to bring out the smoothiness a little bit more.
I will be definitely looking forward to adding these to my permanent stock! Also, I’d like to try this one flavored with jasmine.
