I received this as a free sample with a recent white2tea order. Score! The ball opens up pretty easily with a long rinse followed by a rest in a closed gaiwan. It’s mildly sweet with a vegetal background. It’s not the usual sweet forward taste I’m used to with w2t productions, though. There’s something in there that I can’t place.

The liquor is creamy and thick and the middle steeps have a huang pian-like dark heaviness to them. It reminds me of some of Yunnan Sourcing’s Lincang productions in that there’s a nutty background to this tea.

Overall, I think this is a decent tea but it doesn’t fit the flavor profile I typically like.
