Dry Aroma: Herbal. A bit of black pepper without the sneezing.
Dry Appearance: Dark brown with a few hints of tan and an interesting leather brown look on 1/3 of them. Twisting, curling, and some a bit open. Mostly broken in medium-sized pieces.
Infusing leaves: ARTICHOKE! Cream.
Flavor: More artichoke. Kinda herbal. It has a bit of minerality but is different from other oolongs in that it takes a backseat.
Mouth feel: Silky and very filling, like a Chinese silk comforter. Btw… as amazing as they feel they don’t don’t make good bed comforter. They’re slippery. And any time you try to look cool by sliding across it will end up with you faceplanting into the wall or floor.
Liquor color: O_O that’s dark! Not as dark as some pu er or dark teas can be but darker than some black (red) teas.
Wet Leaf Aroma: Kinda… sour? Not quite as high as a goishicha but something in the aroma is slightly sour. But in a good way. There is also a bit of raisin.
