i really like purple teas of Dehong. This one is no exception. the taste is complex. Its like mix of smoked meats, raw nuts, maybe floral, but on the background. in other words it tastes savory to me. Some spice makes it complete.

is it similar to a dian hong tea?

Kirkoneill, I don’t think it’s similar. Dian Hong usually has sweet potato, hay, honey profile. This one is savory, spicy, nutty. I love them both.
