From Old Ways Tea

Little Red Robe. Similar to our 2015 DHP. The dry leaf smells good. The roast is robust with some cocoa character. It has a mouthwatering intensity. The tea was processed April 27th 2020, and roast at the end of July.

I believe the name of this one translates to Little Red Robe, which is really, really cute. The tea is very rich with an upfront combination of roast and minerality that evokes imagery of fossilized wood, smooth polished umber-hued river stones, and charcoal log fires. Very “cabin in the woods” vibes punctuated by dark notes of chocolate, black sugar, leather, and peanuts roasted to the point of almost being burnt. And just when it feels like it’s about to tip toe over the line of being a little too bracingly bitter and astringent the finish kicks in, flooding the palate with sweet and enveloping notes of ripe stonefruits. Black cherries and red plums that linger long after the swallow and merge with a powerful huigan. Ever so slightly floral in its undertones, with notes of violets. Wow.
