Try teas from vendors you have not had tea from.
Hi!
What is the brewing device called?
Just tried this same tea yesterday.
Agreed on the tasting points. Sweet but not malty thick.
Vanilla for sure. Good price for 9016. 1990 was the year that recipe was developed.
So, you’re drinking the first edition. It also has the distinction of being the oldest shou tea that YS carries. Clean tea. I like using a larger gaiwan or pot for a tea like this.
