I saw that Scott released a video about this one today, so when it was tea time I went for it. Like the Da Mao Shan I had yesterday the flavor is very honeyed. The mouthfeel is very thick and soft, somewhat oily. Milder and less pungent than the Da Mao Shan, but not at all weak. Like they say in the video it is very balanced. One thing I notice as I keep drinking is that it stays in the mouth for a long time. It’s slightly floral and also taste of mild nuts. I like this tea a lot, but prefer the stronger Da Mao Shan.

I only recently sampled the DMS for the first time and need to return it. I like both of these teas a lot. The HTD sold me on it’s-difficult-to-describe, unique flavor profile, textures, and strong qi that remind me of some Yiwu teas. 2017 was a good year for YS.

I agree, the 2017 YS I’ve had so far have been great
