Feiner, leicht süsser, erfrischender Tee mit dezentem, ja geradezu ätherischem, einzigartigem und vollendet rundem Geschmack (bei anweisungsgemäss ganz kurzer Ziehzeit nicht bitter, nicht herb – für mich ein völlig neues und interessantes, unvergleichliches Geschmackserlebnis). Leicht belebende, vitalisierende, stimmungsaufhellende Wirkung (daher am besten morgens trinken). Erstklassige, sichtlich ausgesuchte Qualität. Hervorragende schützende Verpackung. Vielen Dank, dass ihr diese Kostbarkeiten für uns mit viel Leidenschaft im fernen chinesischen Bergland aufspürt!

Beautiful leaves, very supple after brewing. Nutty nose, slightly roasted cashews, as well as some greenery in the back, arugula and vegetable stew. In the mouth not too aromatic, maybe some white grapes, roasted bell peppers, slight woodiness and acacia honey. However, exceptional texture: satisfying juiciness, I think there’s even a slight acidity that pronounces the big body of the tea even more. This tea tastes fine, but it’s not so much the aroma that makes it shine, but the texture and mouthfeel. (Tasted 12 VII 18, 2018 spring harvest)
