Huang Mei Gui (Gul Rose) Lapsang Souchong

I love smocky teas and this one is, like described, really sweet and nice to smell and to drink. Thanks for the possibility to know all these wonderful teas.

A very pleasant tea, with floral fragrance and sweet taste, the yellow rose cultivar really deserves its name.

Brewing: 5g/100ml, 95°C, 5s x 3, +5s.

Warmed-up dry leaves smell of chocolate, stone fruit and flowers. Wet leaves bring very interesting spices to the mix.

The liquor's taste has those same spices, on a subdued, cooked vegetable background, with delicate peach-like fruitiness and a cocoa butter aftertaste.

All in all, a great tea with spectacular spice notes. I would wear a perfume with those notes.

My absolute favourite tea, it has a funny smell representing delicate innate qualities. It is an acquired fragrance but the flavour is absolutely wonderful and I would rate it a 9,8/10. Slight hint of orange and a taste of something spectacular that will keep you searching and guessing for it's profound deepness.

Citrus, floral, honey, berries and dried fruit smell. Floral, citrus, somewhat mineral flavor and a milky touch. Perfect to drink in the afternoon.
