drank Golden Dragon Pu'erh by DAVIDsTEA
254 tasting notes

Well this was a lets give it a try tea that I picked up back in July 4 months ago and finally opened today.

How to describe it? It doesn’t taste like fish. I know that doesn’t seem like much praise, but after my first attempt at a Shou Pu’erh, that’s massive. :D

Similar to the one I got from Whispering Pines, this has a lot of leather in it. In fact I will say its the dominating flavor, I don’t notice much else.

Its not unpleasant, but I just think this is not the kind of thing for me personally. Maybe I’ll try one of these balls again some time down the road to see if my tastes have changed at all.

Due to Steepster instability, I have moved to my own system for logging/rating/tracking and I have chosen to move to a 10pt rating system. (As of 7/2023)

All new teas will be rated using this new system. Existing teas will not be modified unless I try them again.

Rating Details:
100 – Amazing
90 – Excellent
80 – Enjoyable
70 – If I’m in the right mood
60 – Nothing Special
50 – Interesting elements, but doesn’t work as a whole
40 – Disappointing
30 – Not for me
20 – Harsh/Bad
10 – Absolutely horrible

All reviews are purely subjective based upon my personal preferences alone.
