Four steeps to endless sweetness

"Early 30 second steeps are notable for mushroomy/sawdust aroma with a surprisingly sweet chocolate flavor on the tongue that resolves into a juicy astringency. However by the fourth steep (2 minutes) the tea is giving way to an incredible long vegetal finish that freshens and dries the whole mouth and leaves behind a green-mango sweetness long after the cup is finished. I am thrilled with this tea."

mild tea

"very mild tea, mild flavor - and... mellow caffein delivery (imagine that). I don't feel experienced enough to give a detailed tea review with specifics - but I do like this tea. I think I like it a little bit more than the 2020 Purple Voodoo. Generally I like tea bit more robust to start a day (like an Assamica black), so this may end up being for days I start drinking tea later in the day - or the rare day I wear out my morning leaves and need something fresh"

Super unique

"Ok, this tea is completely unlike any other tea I tried. Dry leaf smells, frankly, unpleasant - like blue cheese and dirty feet, caught me completely off guard. Wet leaf gets more fruity notes, mainly a distinct cooked pear fragrance, but the unpleasant notes remain, making me a bit hesitant to drink it. The soup, however, is a lot different. Very light and clear with a slight purple/pink hue. Taste is distinctly dried plums (not fresh), but not really sweet. The texture reminds me more of white tea (like silver needles). Very lubricating and oily. There's a bit of aged taste and a tiny amount of TGY-like sourness. Slightest hint of bitterness. Overall a nice tea, but quite unusual."
