I bought this tea a few years ago, and mostly forgot about it. At the time, I had a pretty narrow idea about what tea is “supposed” to taste like, and this didn’t fit.
Now that my perspective has changed, I dug it out again. I’m glad I did.
1 cute little pressed heart in my 120mL gaiwan, with boiling water. 5 sec rinse, then started infusing at 5s.
The result is sweet, floral, and smooth. No discernible bitterness. The rose mostly comes through in the scent and the aftertaste.
Flavors: Brown Sugar, Malt, Rose, Tea
I’ve been wondering about these, but I was afraid the rose would be overwhelming. I’ll have to pick up a few next time.
