drank Feng Qing "Xiang Gui" Dian Hong Black Tea * Spring 2016 by Yunnan Sourcing
1758 tasting notes

This tea, which I believe is all buds, is pretty good. It’s got a malty note, a chocolaty note and a fruity note. Because I added a small amount of sugar the fruity note seems strongest. Tastes like ripe plums.

I brewed this tea twice in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and 200 degree water for 3 and 4 minutes. I put the second steeping into a thermos for work.

Flavors: Chocolate, Malt, Plum

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

Bio

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.

Location

Bay Shore, NY
