Dian Hong-Broken Standard (AKA Dian Hong-Yunnan Black Tea-Broken Black mixed with Tender Gold Buds) from ESGREEN

K S drank Dian Hong-Broken Standard (AKA Dian Hong-Yunnan Black Tea-Broken Black mixed with Tender Gold Buds) by ESGREEN

I have enjoyed this sample. I think this is the fourth session and the last. It is not as full bodied as the TeaVivre versions but the browned cocoa notes that drive this are quite nice. I didn’t get up with the intention of having this. It was setting beside my kettle and just kind of pushed itself on me. Glad it did. It went well with the cinnamon crumb cake (breakfast of champions).

Just curious – anyone ever seen a Cheapster Steepster Dian Hong in a bag for lazy or gotta run days?
