An incredibly bud heavy Feng Qing black tea from Yunnan province.
Honey Needle is a an elegant, sweet and lightly floral black tea with a supple body and smooth soup. A decadent morning tea with complexity and a wispy character that flits along like a stream throughout a session.
Gongfu!
I’ve been going through this tea a whole lot quicker than I expected to. There’s just something about the rich body but smooth and almost whipped feeling sweet flavour that just seems to always appeal to me no matter my mood. Like the name implies, it has strong honey notes throughout the session. There’s also an almost marshmallow-like taste that coyly seems to flirt between more of a fluff and more of the golden, caramelized taste of a toasted campfire style marshmallow. Between the two, sweet and creamy are pretty heavy hitting descriptors for the session, though notes of malt, sweet potato, and cocoa nibs in the undertones do a pretty solid job still keeping the profile anchored and not all surface level sugars.
