Beautiful Eyebrows gotta love the name.
Just realized this is an all bud plucking….. whooops no wonder why it slaps you awake. In an effort to drink within freshness and find an excuse to open something new I once again jammed by yixing full of leaf, which being small tender buds is extra dangerous because one oz volume wise can easily weigh 10-15 g or about twice as dense as most rolled and 3x as dense as most twisted oolongs.
Flavors wise this time around everything got muddled and all I tasted was generic hong cha, tickle of spice like a diluted chai with a slight toffee bitter sweet finish. Not the highest quality as it did seem to bubble (tea scum on only the first 2/3 steepings) on every infusion but depending on much hong cha you drink I doubt it’s worth spending double the price for a slightly better quality just be sure to rinse your tea a tad longer than usual possibly.
A reliable, cheap, SUPER caffeinated but balanced calming energy due to its spring plucking, hong cha that will never brew bitter. I am noticing a trend of only appreciating teas as my stock runs out oh well given my current inventory Im sure I will live with the 65+ other teas crowded my cabinet. A sure staple, Win Win Win.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Malt, Toffee
