From Bitterleaf Teas

Aside from being close to lots of great tea, one of the other perks of living in south China is the variety and availability of amazing fruit, with pomelos being one of our favourites. That’s why we specifically sought out a quality Youhua xiang/Pomelo flower fragrance dancong for 2022.

As the name would suggest, the fragrance is very floral floral, however, this tea offers more than that with a full citrus experience. A fruity quality balances out the fragrance, and is even accompanied by citrus zest note that lends a pleasant bitterness. This is all capped off with a refreshing and slightly minty sensation that is left behind in the mouth.

A decent dancong! I got this tea from my recent BLT order, and for the price, this tea is quite good. Beautiful leaves with a vibrant yellow sheen, paired with a decent wet leaf aroma and a decent liquor. This tea had a generally more “masculine” flavour profile with a deeper minerality and spices flavour, but still retained a characteristic citrusy taste. Juicy and smooth texture with noticeable “shan yun”, and this tea also had a very nice, refreshing aftertaste and a decent finish. This tea had a decent character and complexity, with a decent steep longevity. This tea falls apart mostly when it comes to cha qi, with a lack of cha qi being the glaring lack in this tea.

While this tea should be praised for what it does right, especially at this price, it can definitely push the boundaries of its qualities to make it a 80 or 85+ tea.
