I’m not sure what to make of this tea. I got this sample from my recent w2t order, and so many things were wrong with this tea. First of all, the sample came in a damaged and torn mylar package, and secondly, the tea was quite stale and flavourless. Maybe it could be due to the tear in the packet, but I’m not sure. Little flavour with a slight floral and herbaceous note, thin texture and mouthfeel, and only a little chaqi. The aroma honestly smelled like fresh vomit, which was quite off putting. The only thing going for this tea is the nice astringent finish that coats the mouth at the end, and a decent cake that was easy to break up. Would not recommend, and I’m frankly skeptical about the whole mylar packaging situation as well, but I’ll let it slide with -10 points.
