Vendor Notes
This tea offers a syrupy and floral aroma, leading to complex flavors of moss, bark, and dandelion. Its unique "three smother three bake" processing yields a dark leaf and a surprisingly astringent profile that mellows beautifully over multiple infusions, akin to raw Pu-erh. Expect a strong body and a diverse range of evolving flavors.
