From PTTB-4
This is a nice father’s day treat. More elegant than powerful, but a very complex flavor, with perfect balance between the nose, taste, and finish.
The first cup presented a spicy aroma (clove and black pepper ?). These flavors continued into the taste, which was mostly wood and straw. Second steep was more of the same, but with a bit of apricot replacing some of the spice, which reappeared more strongly in the finish. By the end of the second cup (3+2 oz) I was really feeling the cha qi as a whole-body effect. Very pleasant. 3rd steep turns slightly bitter, hiding much of the fruit and spice, which reappears as the tea cools. VERY strong qi. I shortened the 4th steep a bit and was rewarded with a smooth, fruity cup. I’ll post this now but expect to keep drinking this through the day; it shows no signs of quitting.
