Gongfu!
I love how full bodied and lush the mouthfeel of this tea is. It has such a nice coating slickness that works really well with the indulgent notes of bittersweet dark chocolate, malted barley, leather, and brandied plums. I especially love that the whole session seems accented by these fresh, aromatic top notes of sweet red apple and undertones of dewy roses. Really dynamic mix of tasting notes!!
Between some bad insomnia and an unexpected cold, it’s been a few days since I’ve had a really nice tea session. So, this was a welcome moment of calm and reflection. Very grounding. For a couple days I really didn’t feel much like myself, so good to get back to that.
