Description
After taking a year off from carrying this tea, the hate mail we received due to withholding it left us with no choice but to bring it back for 2024.
We’re really not being subtle with the tasting notes for this one. This tea starts off with a notable malt-chocolate quality in the initial brew, followed up by a floral fragrant in subsequent steeps, and a peachy-sweet aftertaste that finishes off each sip.
Compared to previous years, this tea leans a little heavier towards the peachy side, not to mention the sweeter side of things, as with many other teas from this spring.
This tea comes from Daxueshan region bushed that see minimal human interference outside of picking. In many cases this could be labelled “wild”, but that’s a bit of a misnomer. The tea is more “left to grow” by our labelling standards.
Please note that the 250g size does not include a tin.

Very good! Makes a great cold brew

Light malt, not too much chocolate IME, quite floral, smells honey sweet and of tropical fruits (very mango juice especially during long steeps, and passion fruit), even a light vegetable (cooked beans) facet in the wet leaves. Great endurance, the sweetness that remains on the tongue reminds me of overripe peaches just of the trees in summer, very very fruity sweet, almost syrupy. A step above in complexity from a basic black tea.

This is delightful. The nose gives slightly savory/malty chocolatey vibes. Those come through but after the first couple steeps I feel that juicy, overripe, peach comes through a lot more and some of the florals. It’s really nice and balanced overall and a great daily drinker.

From the dry leaf there’s a peppery sweetness that reminds me of chili chocolate, which continues when met with water. There’s also a slight orchid note to the warmed leaf, whereas the liquor and a sip return hot peach juice, slick with viscous body. The peach is the strongest of the three namesakes by far, very nice.
