Second tea from my new order from WFT. I remember how amazing this tea was now. I think that this year’s tea is a bit less dynamic than the winter 2022 batch I last drank, but this tea is still exquisite. That lovely mystical misty mountain forest flavor that made me fall in love with this tea is still present. The main drawback is I don’t get much in the way of tropical fruits on the nose this year. Not a huge deal though :).
So glad I splurged on 75 g of this. I will be enjoying it for at least a couple of months I bet. Phenomenal stuff really. Now I just wish I had more of the Bi Lu Xi as well haha.

I’m glad you like their DYL as much as I do! I haven’t gotten tropical fruit in the harvests I’ve tried, but it’s still an excellent tea.
Yes, Wang is one of my favourite oolong vendors. They have a 10% off sale right now and I’m very tempted to buy tea I don’t need.
Hahaha I’m also tempted but have no money at the moment unfortunately. It’s okay though because I have plenty of this DYL left :)
I just got one of the Dayuling and Wang Jia Cong Fu Cha. This is the first time I didn’t spend over $50 for an order lol. It would have been higher if the Jasmine Shanlinxi didn’t run out of stock.
Nice! I look forward to your opinion of the Wang Jia tea. I wish they had more 2024 teas in stock. My secret source is only selling one oolong this year (spring 2024 Lishan), so I’ll need to buy other gaoshan at some point.

OMG it’s so good! I’m probs gonna buy some every year going forward. Love all of WFTs teas.

Oh nice! I’m also curious to see your thoughts on both teas :).
