This is a beautiful Yunnan, and a great way to start my morning. There are some hay, malt, and sweet potato notes to start, and there’s a hint of dried fruit in the aftertaste that reminds me of dates—I don’t think I’ve ever tasted that in a tea before, but it’s wonderful. As the tea cools the malt and hay come out more, and I’m finding I like it both cool and hot.
This is You :-D

Bio
Elizabeth, college student, anthropology major, bio and history minor. I love to travel and try new foods (and teas!). I also enjoy music, books, video games as often as I can get my hands on them.
I loved tea as a kid, didn’t drink it for about ten years, and then rediscovered it a couple of years ago. Tea sometimes helps me feel better when chronic illness is making things hard. It’s also fun to experiment with!
I’m still pretty new to the types and brands of tea out there, but I’m interested in trying some of everything. My favorites are earl greys, yunnans, medium-bodied oolongs, Japanese greens, fruit, vanilla, and floral flavors (especially jasmine and rose). My least favorites are teas that are overly smoked, bitter, or contain strong hibiscus or orange peel.
