It’s not first aged Baozhong in TheTea history. But the first one with so clean and dry storage. Traditionally made Baozong oolong stored for 20 years in the farmer’s house near Pinglin. Warmed leaves of this powerful oolong smell similar to aged yancha – you will find here wood, camphor and hard to describe medicinal flavours.
Storage aroma is very gentle. From the first infusions you can enjoy strong salivating effect.
Tea is mineral, camphor like with warm notes of wood and nuts and autumn leaves. Further infusions are bringing notes typical for Baozhong – honey sweetness and flowers (but here decaying flowers).
Aftertaste: amazing – long and sweet. Tasting this tea is a real journey.
