A bit cloudy to the eye, or at least possessing a matte finish. Buttery mouthfeel with zero bracing on the sip. One wood expect wouldsiness or some astringent bit, but nope. Plush. Peach fuzz & herbaceous notes. Wood is on the slurp, in a pine fashion. Then onto the lengthening finish. Pine nuts, too. White pepper.
Noses significantly more floral than it drinks. Nice complexities are achieved that way, though. A rich, calm, and calming cuppa with soft sweet tendencies. This has been my everyday tea as of late. The flavor distance twixt the sip & the slurp is an excellent spot for a nap.
FINAL GRADE: B+
