Saturday morning relaxation... . When Arnaud from @the.ritoires told me he had an unbelievable Tien Guan Yin, he was not kidding! This Iron Goddess of Mercy (which is a very appropriate name for this tea) has the sweetness and flowery orchid notes that I always love in this type of Oolong (which is one of my absolute favorites since it’s the reason why I fell head over heals with blue teas). Yet it also has a bit of green grassiness, a touch of saltiness (which is my weakness)! It’s a bit like salted almonds caramelized with salt, honey, kumquats and orchids. I call it bliss! . Of course, to take notes while taking the time to enjoy this beauty, I had to use my Pelikan m205 demo B tuned years ago by @stringsandpedals at @appelboompennen. Yesterday I received my latest purchase from them including @pelikan_passion Edelstein Ink of the Year Moonstone which is inked in this pen. It’s really pretty and I will be sharing about it soon. . Wish you all a lovely Saturday! . . . #TienGuanYin #IronGoddessOfMercy #鐵觀音 #Theritoires #arnaudbachelin #TeaTime #GongFuCha #ILoveMyGaiwan #oolongtea #PelikanM205 #pelikanm205demonstrator #appelboompennen #Penaddict #FPAddict #Inkantadora #Fountainpengeeks #StationeryAddict #FountainPens #StylosPlume #PlumaFuente #Stilografica #Vulpen #Füller #Estilografica #CanetaTinteiro #만년필 #万年筆 #钢笔 #鋼筆 (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAPv7XfDf9f/?igshid=1tarkiq9vl1gd
