From Crimson Lotus Tea

Deep in the forested hills of Kunlu Shan gorgeous tea trees are reaching out and broadcasting daily for your tea drinking pleasure. Close your eyes as you enjoy this tea and listen to the voice of the forest. Tune in and Steep Out!

Year after year the Kunlu Xiao Qiao Mu ( small arbor tree ) material does not disappoint. This tea has great mouthfeel! It is lush and full bodied. It is a very pleasant tea to drink young. There is a vibrant color that matches the youthful vigor in this tea. The aromatics in this tea are sweet and fruity with hints of dry baking chocolate.

Too bitter for me. Medium-low astringency. Will adjust brewing parameters on next session and report back. Need to try lower leaf/water ratio and lower temperature. Flavor is potent for sheng anyways. Other than the overwhelming bitterness, the flavor was nice.

Here’s a fun thing about western style brewing. You take your basket out of the cup and put it in the lid, and the water left in the leaves slowly makes it way out and down into the lid where it stews with the bottom leaves. Come back before you brew your next cup and enjoy the ‘slurp’. The slurp really tells you about the tea, magnified 10×. The slurp on this tea was just heavenly.

Was really looking forward to this one. Think I’ve got it sufficiently hydrated, it’s got a complex rich smell on the cake, but polite. The first sniff of the soup was a delicious aroma of the spice melange and peppercorns. It was so inviting I kept searching for it.

I brewed this short and cool based on derk’s tasting note. I figured it had the power and it sure did. Thanks derk!

Drinking this tea is angelic on the hot – no dominant flavor poked out, it was just superior in it’s stature. I had half of it gone before it cooled enough for me to get this fantastic tingling as I drank it with incredible returning coolness. Flavor has hints of softer things like maybe dandelions and jasmine. Perhaps needs more time to open up and hydrate before I get a more full flavored profile. So clean and inviting that I can’t wait to brew another cup and try and figure it out.
