Yunnan Golden Buds from Verdant Tea
97

Short short review of this as I should be studying for my final (worth 50% of my mark)..

I’m on the 3nd steep and was trying for the life of me to figure out what this sweet burnt honey sugar taste was… Caramel Brule. Spot on in my mouth.. playing hide and seek with my taste buds on a magical journey. I’m loving every minute of this.
That is all for now.. I will give this a better review later on, but I know that I will need to have something to quickly help me identify that delightfully mysterious flavour that likes to play hide and seek when I try this again =)

Good luck with the test! But, as a fellow student, I have to ask: What class is the test for?

Thank you! The class is an online genetics course for my BSC in micro/molecular biology =)

Bio

I am very excited to delve into as many different types of tea as possible… so this should be interesting. I am really looking forwards to tasting all the wide array of flavours that can come from pure tea leaves.

Currently, I am having a love affair with oolongs. Mostly green, though I am stretching out into more oxidized oolongs. Black teas are also in my love fest as they can be so surprising sometimes (I used to drink bagged red rose x.x)
I would really love to get to know green tea a lot more and white tea.. all tea to be honest. I want to know them all.

Tea rating system:

0-50: Do people actually enjoy this?
50-60: Slight improvement, not recommendable.
60-70: Alright, though easily forgettable.
70-80: Good flavour, though not a ‘go to’ tea.
80-90: Great tea – complex and memorable.
90-100: Extremely delicious and complex teas that leave me craving more.

On top of tea, I have a love for music. Generally all music, though I am partial to indie rock/folk/pop/electronic. Follow me if you also enjoy indie music and would like to trade some artists!

I’m always open to new tea and music suggestions. Happy tea drinking to you all.
