drank 2008 Goddess Of Beauty by Teanami
304 tasting notes

I got about 9.5 grams of this out to try tonight. I used the Gaiwan to brew this up. I gave this a quick rinse and allowed it to sit for about 10 minutes.
I did 3 quick brews into a big mug, my favorite way for shou.
The brew is a nice deep amber color. The sips are very clean. I think the fermentation has left this one. It has the bittersweet chocolate and dry cocoa in the mouth. It tends to linger on the middle part of the tongue and whispers of a savory broth with some saltiness in there. Hints of dried dates also come through as the tea cools a bit.
Nice and clean and good value for a tea with this age.

Flavors: Broth, Cocoa, Dark Bittersweet, Dates, Salt

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 15 sec 9 g 10 OZ / 295 ML

Came in here to check up on you with the floods and all in West Virginia. Couldn’t remember exactly where you and Linda were.
Hope you’re well!
I’m still living in a 34 ft trailer on my daughter’s farm. I’m 68 now. Tomorrow I’m serving cold brewed Spring Tiegyuanyin from Verdant (cold) and a hot herbal fruit tea from Happy Luckys after Church (a once a month book reading). Still involved with tea!
Take care of yourselves! You aren’t forgotten! I loved writing here but it was too much!
