Decent semi-aged sheng! I got this tea from my recent KTM order, and it definitely serves as a good benchmark tea considering its a 7542. Nice leaves albeit a bit hard to pry with a rich dry and wet leaf aroma and a rich vibrant liquor, the flavour was intense and nice, powerful woody note shining through with a smooth and slightly astringent texture. Character is decent, with a nice steep variability to sweetness as the session goes on, with a finish & aftertaste that provides with ample “Hui Gan”. Cha-qi is somewhat noticeable with a slight buzz yet calm effect and the steep longevity is mediocre to average, topping out at around steep 10.
