Chinese Tea tasting…first cab off the ranks..
…is a 2013 Yunnan Hong Mao Jian..
a Chinese red tea (what we would usually call black but i s’pose you can see it in the leaf and brew i reckon..
an April (spring) harvest red tea from the Fengqing area of Lincang, Yunnan, China
a good looking, clear, and yes, red brew, reckoned as having a chocolate aroma,tasted malty, sweet and balanced without being that surprising at first taste.. must return for another visit..
enjoy….!
