This is the stuff of dreams right here. Just an amazing taste and smell experience. The perfumey leaves emit heady aromas of lilac, gardenia, orchid, and jasmine. It gives a taste sensation that I can only describe as flowers dancing on the tongue. The refined floral flavor here is velvety smooth and complex accompanied by sweet warm grassy tones that evoke rainforests and springtime.
Grandpa style is the way to go with this tea. It’s not my usual steeping method, but it lets you fully experience the ethereal aroma and makes an otherwise pricey tea economical.

Ouf! This sounds intoxicating. And tempting. Very.
A 100…dang.
yeah its making me drool and i’m in puerh heaven right now
I seldom rate teas at a 100, but the competition grade baozhongs are really on another level. For some odd reason, TTC only sells it in 10g, 150g, and 300g sizes. The 10g sampler though lasted me an entire month.
Impressive staying power. I’ve seen otherwise for the competition grades-I actually liked the Farmer’s choice more than the Competition grade for BTTC.
Does grandpa style mean longer steeps (3+ min) or that you just drink with the leaves still in the whole time?
