The golden infusion has mellow aroma notes similar to pepper, earth, yams, and pea vine. The taste as lightly sweet, peppery, and herbal with a hint of fresh-off-the-vine beans.
I first encountered this tea at Miro Tea's booth at Northwest Tea Festival in 2019 and liked it well enough to buy it right away. The flavor is mellow, yet it holds up very well throughout at least three steepings and I was pleased to discover sweet honey-like notes in the second steeping. The finish goes on for miles. While I was perfectly happy with the results from a 3 minute steep at 195° F, this tea invites experimentation with time and temperature with little or no risk of a bad cup of tea.
This tea was purchased by me.
