I’m revisiting this tea and this session just confirms it to be one of my least favourite shengs that I have in storage. I suspect the it may be overcooked, because it reminds me of an old green tea. Overall, there is too little sweetness even for me. It might be interesting to try to blend it with something quite sweet.
The aroma is a bit like soil, milk tea, fenugreek. The taste is savoury, bitter, and vegetal. Overall, I find it to be quite an alkaline tea. One thing I like about it is the thick texture.
Flavors: Bitter, Herbs, Milk, Soil, Thick, Vegetal
