It’s not sweet but not bitter either; kinda bittersweet.
The mouthfeel is rather thick and slightly velvety.
The aftertaste is not long yet left a nice refreshing rather sour taste in the mouth.
Flavors: Earth, Smoke, Vegetal
Preparation
The taste…wonderful! You can never go wrong with a decent Sun Moon Lake Black tea. It’s rich and a delight for tea-thirsty mouths.
It’s sweet with a slight astringency but nothing that bothers you. Very well balanced!
If you like cinnamon flavored black teas, this tea has it naturally. And a quite intense one. I loved it!
It offers fruity tones as well. It’s hard to pinpoint but I get a mostly citrusy taste.
The mouthfeel is slightly thick and velvety.
The aftertaste is quite persistent, particularly the cinnamon taste, and refreshing. It left a nice trail of spicy and fruity flavor both in my throat and mouth.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Mint, Sweet
Preparation
Excellent!!! Same here. The flavors I sensed were mint, cinnamon, and sweet like maltose. Once again, everyone has his/her own way to experiment teas. Nobody can’t promise the same results of tea experiments. We respect and appreciate for those who pay your efforts in doing tea reviews.
