Preparation
Strong and aromatic first infusions, with very pleasant bitterness and camphor taste, no smokiness. Leaves look right (not spectacular at all), but appears to be good aged and compressed (not too tight). I step multiple infusions and feels a good qi and and a sweet aftertaste . I believe this a good 7542.
