Tasters Review:
This tip heavy tea is grown and produced in Northern Yunnan province. Boy oh boy do I love a good Yunnan Tea! This tea lived up to it’s roots…literally! With aromas of malty-goodness and florally-sweet you can’t go wrong! The flavor of the sips I took were well rounded and a bit bakey but still sweet on the first infusion and less baked-goods with more of a floral and sweet flavor on the second infusion. It had a medium-dark color liquor in my cup with it fading just a tad on the second infusion. It does leave a slight aftertaste but it’s a sweet one that makes you want to drink even more.
