Description

This sheng jumps out as uniquely fragrant and powerful. Tea from Ku Zhu Mountain is more bitter and aggressive, while rewarding the drinker with thick brew and lingering sweetness. Brewed cooler, at 195°F, the bitter edge is replaced by the flavor of plum. The producer is Sen Zhi Kui, which translates to "Gift of the Forest." They used Spring 2012 material plucked from trees at least 160 years old. This small producer placed the cake in an impressive wrapper and a whimsical nei fei (inner ticket). We noticed a number of leaf pairs and even bud/leaf sets in the brewed wreckage and definitely enjoyed tasting a new tea mountain.
