Yun Nan Dian Hong Black Tea – Golden Tip from Teavivre
91

Blessed Feast to everyone of the Western Rite this morning of All Saints Days!

Another one of my free samples from TeaVivre.

Oh how I love Yunnan golden teas.

We made homemade pizza last night, and of course I burnt my mouth eating it (how is it so impossible not to do this?) so my taste buds are a bit dull this morning and even so, all those great citrusy notes are popping through followed by warm, round, soft, sweetness. This variety is a bit more citrusy and a bit less warm, round, soft and sweet than some, but without having that kind of lingering bite that makes your throat tense up late into the cup.

Given TeaVivre’s fantastic pricing, this is probably my new go-to Yunnan golden.

It is “cold” in Houston this morning, by which I mean high 50’s, and this is the purrrrfect cuppa for a morning like this.

Pizza smells too good to wait for it to cool down.

I’m probably going to buy this tea from them, too. It’s great.
