Taste Evaluation: FengHuang DanCong #3

Received a surprised #teasample parcel from #guangdong today, there are 3 different quality grades of #fenghuang #dancong and 2 quality grades in #blacktea.

#TeaEvaluation #FHDC Grade 3:

  • lightly charcoal roasted with sweet in warm floral flavour, similar as #yashixiang.
  • The #aftertaste in the 2nd brewing is more clear than the 1st brewing, more in woody note and with refreshing taste
  • The spicy herbal note shines through in the 3rd brewing, the taste remains fine smoth, sweet and refreshing
  • Easily allow more than 6 brewings

It is delightful to enjoy the spirit from old tea trees.

Even though her family has nothing to do with tea, but she learnt the importance of consuming tea correctly in daily healthy diet based on the Chinese traditional medicine principles in Yin-Yang and 5 elements from her family when she was very young. She entered the tea learning in Taiwan since 1985, left her root because of marriage in 1991 helped her to expand her learning from original inward-out views to 360 degree. She started to promote the authentic knowledge about tea and wisdom in Chinese tea culture in Belgium since 1995. Tea has always been and will continue be her best teacher. In front of Nature and Tea, she remains as an innocent child, a life-time learning student.
