Yun Nan Dian Hong Black Tea – Golden Tip from Teavivre

K S drank Yun Nan Dian Hong Black Tea – Golden Tip by Teavivre

2nd cup I iced. It was meh. After a couple drinks I added sweetener, which I never do to iced tea. It didn’t help. In fact, now it just tastes like Splenda. For my tastes, as magical as this is hot, it simply doesn’t have a bold enough flavor to pull off iced. Disappointed but now I know.

I will remember not to ice this one. I do love it hot, though.

That is why I was thinking the plain one without golden tips might be good for iced tea.

Ashmanra I remembered you mentioning golden tips iced, unfortunately I remembered wrong. I knew you said dragon well didn’t work though. I tried the Keemun Hao Ya iced and I liked it that way.
