I had this tea in the morning, it was pretty good, but not exceptional. It is a very green Dan Cong. Its profile reminds me of Yunnan green teas, but here we have more floral and flowery qualities, a more creamy taste, and a softer texture. It also steeps for quite a long time.

Dry leaf aroma is predominately flowery and perfumy with additional notes such as cookies and peach tart among others. After the rinse, I can further smell custard and the overall feeling is that of fresh mountain breeze on a meadow with blossoming flowers.

The taste is creamy, vegetal and fragrant. It has a nice bitterness a light fruity sweetness. Aftertaste is more floral and there is a good huigan too. Mouthfeel is great to be honest – numbing, velvety, and soft.

Flavors: Bitter, Cookie, Cream, Custard, Floral, Flowers, Peach, Vegetal

205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 15 sec 7 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
