Not Recommended
Not an interesting tea by any metric (other than bitterness?). I got this tea from my recent BLT order, and it just doesn’t ascend above average when it comes to young sheng. Decent leaves and liquor with a decent wet leaf aroma, paired with a decent aftertaste of sweet acidity like a pomelo and a bitey texture and finish. This tea lacked a lot in complexity in terms of character and flavour, and the steep longevity and cha-qi left a lot to be wanted. It just tastes like a slightly more bitter than average young sheng.
