Wanted to make sure I get a review in before I drank it all even though I am unsure of what the real name is.
If you are ever in Las Vegas forget the casino and head west. Instead of gambling with uncertainty, gamble with picking out a few teas you’ve never tried before. You will be in tea heaven. And the teaware is gorgeous. I picked up a few things on your visit but decided to start with this one. The nuggets are so unique looking. Dark brown with a bit of a dusty-looking note. Kind of like chocolate that has been scrapped. This one is a sample that she was kind enough to gift me. Everything about it reminds me of sticky rice. The moment the hot water hit the nuggets for the rinse the herbals notes of Nuo Mi Xiang drifted up. If this isn’t a sticky rice tea I am going to be really surprised. The wet leaf smell not only has notes of sticky rice but also creamy notes like a thick cream and cream of wheat. The mouthfeel is very smooth. No astringency. I think I will be drinking this for the rest of the day. So nice.
I’d much rather drink tea than gamble, but from Vegas I’d rather go for a hike in the pretty rocks.
Same! We did Red Rock Canyon and that was amazing!
