I’m on a bit of a ‘tuo’ bender…
This is a very fine example. It’s like honey and baked sweet pastry on the after-breath. Not a typical smokey and leathery Xiaguan tuo. Most similar to the ‘golden ribbon’ but this is sweeter.
10 to 12 decent infusions.
5-star tea. It’s so good in fact, that I immediately bought more.
Flavors: Honey
English tea-drinking person. Ex-Londoner based in Montreal.
I’ve always drunk tea, but with migrating to the EU (and later to Canada) I’ve had a hard time finding the ‘good stuff’.
Not a big fan of ‘flavoured’ tea blends (or most stuff with flowers and bits in). I’m a bit of a purist.
I mainly enjoy exploring natural teas. from Puerh to Oolong. I have a soft spot for Darjeeling.
I’ll generally try anything (at least) once.
