derk drank Lao Cang Ripe Mini Tuocha by Mandala Tea

737 tasting notes

Really mellow and lightly sweet brewed grandpa. Kawaii433’s description of hay, honeysuckle, leather seems spot on to me. Maybe some autumn leaf. Small to medium chop and pretty much no dust. An agreeable, non-fussy shou. It just is, nothing really stands out to me except for its easy-drinking quality.

Thanks for the sample, Kawaii.

Tea habits:

Among my favorites are all teas Nepali, sheng puerh, Wuyi yancha, Taiwanese oolong, a variety of black (red) teas from all over, herbal tisanes. I keep a few green and white teas on hand. Shou puerh is a cold weather brew. Tiny teapots and gaiwans are my usual brewing vessels when not preparing morning cups western style and pouring into my work thermos. Friend of teabags.
