The 2019 WTCCCTV is made from old arbor large leaf varietal tea that is usually destined to be made in raw Puer, picked and processed in shaihong [sun dried black tea] style tea with no machine processing.
WTCCCTV is a heavily sweet and full bodied black tea with a range of honey and fruit flavors that fluctuate between sweet grass and unripe pear. The natural style of sun dried processing means that leaves range in oxidation level, allowing for a complex experience with a bit of variation from session to session. This is an enduring and heavy black tea best suited for a longer, gongfu style tea session.
Gongfu!
Finished off the last of this sample over lunch while also breaking in a new cat teacup!! Took a while for this chunk to really open up, but it made for a pleasantly rich and brothy liquor with malty notes of dark buckwheat honey & cocobolo wood supporting a dense and syrupy mixture of saturated fruit notes – black cherry, plum, and warm baked pears. It continues to be very cold and snowy out here in Montreal, so this heavy but fruity black tea was a perfect afternoon tea break!
