Gongfu!
Love the slick, syrupy liquor and coating mouthfeel of this tea. The top notes glaze-like with dark, golden honey flavours that blanket a more dense, malty and cocoa tinged middle sip with undertones of cooked down, darkly sweet stonefruit. However, the tasting note that struck me the most in this session was a rich and nearly constant present taste of graham crackers. Between the malt, honey, and cocoa it was hard not to think of teddy bear graham cookies at different parts of this session which was actually quite nostalgic. I feel like the last time I had those cookies may have even been in school lunches. I have such a craving for them now, and I don’t even know if they’re still made…
