4.4g, 90 ml ZZZ
wet: incense, floral, smoky sweet, fruity
1. medicinal/incense bitter. minty floral aroma in mouth. something like powdered sugar in taste. soothing in head before flowing downwards and dispersing. settling
2. maybe I’m tripping, but something about this reminds me of YQH house taste except this is more complex and incense and not just mushroom. Soup not super thick today. Strangely happy for a bit, maybe the caffeine is hitting. Strong, comforting just pausing and sitting in place for a bit
3. honeyed medicinal
4-6. taste is too close to YQH. but feeling is nice. good warmth. some floral backend
7. resin, bitter. Had to take a break to eat something
8. lightened. will push a bit next steep
9. some leafy taste, but could still go further. Warm still, but feeling harsh in the stomach now, so will stop.
Quite lovely today. Maybe I will bring this out for guests next time.

Would love to try this one – just so cost prohibitive! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Yes, certainly not cheap! I try to rationalize it as $8 for 2 hours of entertainment every so often. My friends were telling me last weekend that they consider paying $9 for their favorite drinks (something about mango coconut and triple matcha) at Heytea very reasonable, as an outside reference. Which is wild to me, but to each their own.
Assuming you’re US based, once shipping opens back up, would recommend finding a friend (or three…) to split this and/or the 2006, which are supposed to be the favorites.
