Oh my goodness gracious me! I have never, ever tasted a Tie Guan Yin like this! It is INTENSELY sweet. I mean, candy sweet. Cantaloupe candy. The little card I got with it says lilacs dipped in honey, but I am sticking with cantaloupe candy since I have never tasted a lilac. I am sincerely astonished how fantastic this is.

I steeped it kinda crazy, too: 1 perfect teaspoon, about a minute, 8 oz water. Increasing a minute each steep. I’m on my third right now and it’s still SO sweet. Wow. Wow, wow, wow, wow.

I’m ruined for life! This tea is so glorious. Candy. Melon. Candy. I am a hummingbird and this is my nectar! ;) Rumor has it that Tea Sipper’s Traveling Tea Box is coming my way next. I’m going to put a little of this magic in so someone can experience turning into a little hummingbird, too.

I am looking forward to steep after steep after steep today!
