1113 tasting notes

I’ve got more of this tea now thanks to inranger YAY! Thanks!!!

So, I’m not sure I’ve ever had the 1st picking before. Also I haven’t had any LB in a while…someone educate me please, is the first picking supposed to taste different? I feel like there is a flavor note missing here! It is still quite tasty, don’t get me wrong. Just different! It could be my palate as I just ate a bunch of berries before drinking this cup, but still. Weird!

With the exception of shinchas and dragonwell, I’m generally a fall harvest kind of girl with most of my teas, so maybe it is just me.

I’ve never had it myself, but is that what you are referring to Stephanie? There’s a nice description about it, explaining…
