I really appreciate the longevity of this tea! Just 5g took me from morning to afternoon (around 8 steeps at 200ml each). It’s so smooth, tasty and buttery, without any bitterness at all in any of the steeps. This is the first Sheng I ever tried with some age behind it, and would likely reach for this over a ripe puerh (though I tend to favor young shengs and oolongs overall).
Very nice sessionable tea.

Flavors: Apricot, Smooth, Stonefruit

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 15 sec 5 g 7 OZ / 200 ML

In early 2017 I re-kindled my love of tea after a long coffee-filled hiatus when I read this article: http://www.seriouseats.com/2015/02/best-tea-where-to-buy.html and enthusiastically dove into the world of puerh and Taiwanese oolongs.

I now drink tea daily, usually brewing in my trusty 250ml gravity steeper which I find offers a nice in-between of gongfu and western style brewing. I still love my gaiwan, and will always turn to that when trying a new tea.

I am loving this journey, and excited to continue exploring this awesome tea universe.
