Yingde Chinese Black Tea with High Sweet Aroma - Rich & Mellow, from Yinghong Town, Guangdong | High Fermentation Black from Tea Garden3.5OZ (100G)

This black tea reveals a robust combination of malt and cocoa, creating a full-bodied and enjoyable flavor profile. Warm toasty notes with a subtle hint of caramel sweetness, offering a nice balance. The lingering finish leaves a touch of honeyed warmth, causing you to look forward to each sip.

This beautifully twisted leaf has an aroma of dry desert wood. The golden fuzzy hairs are gorgeous, easily the ones twisted in the dark chocolate-colored leaves. The initial aroma is a bit bready but reminds me a bit more of bread pudding. The taste is delicate at first but then really punches you with some unique notes. They are mellow and refined wheat and rye bread notes with desert dry wood notes. Slight driftwood paired with If you steep longer you'll also find hints of varnish which is fine but steeping for less than 2 minutes seems to reveal the best notes in my opinion. Heck, I'd say it's probably better to stick under a minute. The notes stay pretty consistent and mellow with each steeping. The dry woody notes remain.

I'm not a big black tea drinker but this one truly WOWed me, from the smell of dry leaves to the taste, it's probably my first black tea I actually want to have again!

The dry leaves have a mouthwatering, sweet aroma mixed with some fruity and woody tones too. The taste is sweet as well, which I did not expect at all, no bitterness, fresh and strong, stone fruits, flowers, a hint of wood. A great discovery!

Sweet aroma and smooth taste without loosing the black tea personality and body. Honeysuckle, Malt, Brown sugar and Cedar notes. Perfect adstringency and low bitterness (less than 10 seconds of brewing). I have a western palate, so I appreciate the nuances of hot (~40ºC) and cold tea. So many details to appreciate in this tea. I recomend.

Excellent black tea. The tea has a rich earthy and mildly smoked scent with a mild flavor. I'd say with a little bitterness also. The steeped leaves can be used a multitude of times without altering much to the flavor (to wit, it becomes less strong but not much else.) I will buy more of their teas. Excellent quality.
