Spring 2023: A good amount of smoke, some grassiness, strong chestnut notes, and a broth-like feel to this tea. Savory and thick. Quite a bit different from most of the other Yunnan green teas I have sampled on my recent order from Yunnan Sourcing due to the smoke, but it isn’t overbearing or offensive in any way. In fact, the smoke is a contributor to the savory qualities of the tea and can give the impression of bacon or similar flavors. Not my favorite of the bunch, but definitely another nice and worthwhile Yunnan green tea.

I love tea. Mainly Chinese teas, such as Keemuns, Shui Xian oolongs when I can find them, Yunnan golden buds, and delicate spring greens. With so many options, though, I keep trying new teas.
