This is absolutely lovely. I’ve spent the better part of the last couple of hours with this tea. The first cup (first two infusions following a rinse) possessed slightly sharp floral tones with a sweet honey-esque tone, and background notes of peach and apricot. By the time I reached mid-cup, I also detected a lovely, sweet citrus tone.

The second cup (my favorite!) was smoother, with a soft mouthfeel. The floral tones had mellowed a little bit, melding with the fruit tones. The peach notes have emerged. So delightfully complex!

I got six infusions (three cups) out of this tea, and I suspect I would have gotten more, but, I decided it was time to move on.

I really enjoyed this!
