Steeped a 4g button in ~10oz just boiled water for three minutes in a YiXing teapot. Removed leaf strainer after three minutes. Extremely dark color, reminds me of black coffee, except it’s a deep brown. Very earthy, almost like damp dirt. Slight mushroom notes. Some malt aroma (light black malt, some chocolate malt). Medium bodied, no astringency to speak of, semi-dry finish. Smooth taste, the flavors are well integrated. Mostly earth with a slight roastiness.

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 0 sec
