This tea is good but not great. It has a strong roasted barley flavor in the foreground and a sweet flavor in the background. The sweet flavor is hard to notice at first. I don’t notice any other flavors. It is not as good as the Da Hong Pao from Yunnan Sourcing but is good. Is is better than the other Da Hong Pao from Dragon Tea House that I reviewed the other day. The leaves of this tea are nice looking, large, curly, and wiry looking. It has a nice aroma.

I brewed this once in an 18oz teapot with 190 degree water and 3 tsp leaf for 3 min.

Flavors: Roasted Barley, Sweet

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 3 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 18 OZ / 532 ML

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
