2022 harvest
Been sipping on this casually at work. It does really well with the cooler-than-boiling water from the dispenser. Sweet, fruity and floral with tangy aftertaste. Mellow — it doesn’t carry the punch of flavor and aromatics of a previous year’s harvest. More oolong than red tea. Still have to try it out gongfu.
Flavors: Citrus, Eucalyptus, Floral, Fruity, Lemongrass, Licorice Root, Lychee, Malt, Pecan, Persimmon, Round, Smooth, Sweet, Tangy, Viscous

Derk, did you break the dashboard again? :P
Wuyi Origin’s Wild Lapsang is one of my all-time favourite teas.
It wasn’t me, I promise! Though I do think the stall might be related to the server receiving too many tasting note inputs in quick succession such that it gets bogged down and cranky. But I’m not a tech person, so who knows.
Did I give you any of this? I feel like I might’ve. If this tea is one of your all-time faves, have you not given it a glowing review in order to cloak its excellency? ;P Anyway, yeah, it’s real good!
A server overload wouldn’t surprise me. After all, it had to cope with the many tasting notes left over from the previous stall. Steepster’s been really glitchy lately, to say the least!
Daylon first introduced me to this tea, and I actually reviewed it under Trident Booksellers and Cafe instead of Wuyi Origin. Since then, I’ve bought many iterations and I would raise the rating substantially. You did send me some at one point and I think I left a comment thanking you on one of your reviews. :) I also thought I’d written a tasting note on the Wuyi Origin page, but either I didn’t do it or Steepster ate it.
The tech reason that derk suggested seems plausible for me, but honestly; I don’t think that we overload it in any way. It is supposed to be able to handle it.
The tea… sounds just lovely.
