2006 Longyuan Hao Shu Tuo 100g
This 100g ball pressing of fine buds of leaves from Longyuanhao is an incredible, sweet and perfectly balanced find. It is sweet and complex in a way that appeals to people who love roasted oolongs. Thoughout the tasting experience it stays clean and perfectly balanced. The first steepings are sweet and vanilla-like, almost reminiscent of angel food cake. The tea builds in thickness. It surprises us with deep sweet cedar wood, and rich cinnamon, clove and allspice.
