Dry Leaf: The tea has a earthy smell, I even get like a tobacco leaf type of aroma.
Wet Leaf: Has a mellow earthy smell with a touch of sweetness that lingers in the background.
Liquor: Has a dark color broth that has a nice clarity to it was not murky in anyway.
Taste: This tea is smooth with a sweet wood flavor which gives this tea a very mellow earthiness in the background.
My Score / Over All Opinion: 89, This tea reminded me of Souvia’s Tuo Cha (see review) But this one was smoother and had a bit more quality to it. I would have gave it a 90 if I would have got the floral aspect of the tea but I did notice in the description production was March 2006 and mine was March 2007 may have been the reason why the floral note was missed. All in all, a nice tea I enjoyed after some fatty Burger King food.
