For me it tasted purely like cucumbers, and vanillish fragrance made this even stranger experience. Didn't enjoy it, but that's... Unique.
This was really really good. Tasted like cacao and sunflower seeds.
I received the golden flower set yesterday and am slowly trying them out. The mild spicy flavor and thicker mouth feel of the 2017 Ginger Fu brick immediately made me run off to check if I could order more! Alas it seems to be exclusive to this club (for now).
A very tasty tea down to the last cup. It starts off tasting buttery, almost like fresh-baked bread, then morphs into a floral taste in later cups. The pillow is expertly compressed, and slowly expands in the gaiwan, eventually filling it right up.
I highly recommend this tea. I keep it for a Sunday afternoon special tea.
The tea was packaged so it wouldn’t all break in shipping.
The aroma of the dry leaves in the heated teapot smell heavenly. The first (and every) steep is heavenly. I highly recommend this tea. It’s my new favourite.
