Very unique flavor. There are distinct honey, floral, and fruit notes that I am more accustomed to finding in leafhopper oolong teas, but this tea is not as heavy on my stomach as those oolongs tend to be.

I can’t see myself drinking this tea on a regular basis – I tend to go through alternating phases of craving or being completely put off by honey notes – but it may show up in my cupboard from time to time.

Flavors: Floral, Fruity, Honey, Sweet

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 0 sec

OOO a new harvest of this one! And I notice Teavivre has a new Ancient Tree in stock. I wish they had these when I ordered so I could have bought samples.

This is part of my new-to-teavivre mass sampling order. I ordered a sample of like, everything. haha. I didn’t realize there was a previous version of this already on stepsister. For some reason, I couldn’t find it when I searched originally, so I created a new entry :o

Shelley_Lorraine

ugh, autocorrect. stepsister = Steepster*

tea-sipper

Yeah, the Stepsister autocorrect made me laugh. :D If you didn’t post another entry though, I wouldn’t have noticed it was a new harvest. I’m glad to see they are still selling it!

My Rating System

100 My happiness absolutely depends on it

95 Will definitely repurchase

85: Might repurchase (teas that depend on my mood)

75 Won’t repurchase (but I would drink it again if offered).

65: meh

45: I reluctantly finished a cup.

15: Couldn’t finish a cup.

I simplified my ratings to single numbers rather than ranges because I can’t precisely compare so many teas with a system more detailed than this.

An unrated tea is most often one that I recognize as having significant notable quality, but that does not suit me personally. Sometimes, I leave teas unrated for other reasons, such as I am undecided or I brewed it wrong, etc.

Note: Boiling temp. barely reaches 200 where I am (and a few times it sticks at 195, I assume due to unexplainable shifts in altitude or the position of the moon. . .aliens?. . .).
