My note got deleted! :(
Got this as a free sample from Alistair in my first What-cha order. Decided to steep it according to the recommendations, though I would normally do short steeps for my oolongs, jin xuans included. The first steep is a very light, transparent golden yellow, and it smells floral and milky. The taste is more floral than anything, with a milky texture that thickens to almost creamy as you swallow.
The following steeps are similar, but gradually lighter in flavor. So far I feel like I prefer What-cha’s Fujian Jin Xuan to this one, but I will see if steeping it my usual way changes that at all.
Flavors: Creamy, Floral, Gardenias, Milk
