I have two very different roasts of the same tea.
The first roast is the market norm. Medium-light with notes of apple pie and cinnamon (duh, Rou Gui).
The second tea is the exact same leaves put twice the more roasted. Much darker notes of black cherries and smoked pine.
Explore the changes in flavor that are in direct correlation with roasting. See if you can find the similarities in these teas which will by those brought by the leave its self.
Two servings of each tea.
