This tea has a very powerful fragrance, somewhat reminding of lowly-oxidized oolongs. The bitterness is moderate, astringency is quite high. The tea soup is very active in the mouth and sweetness lingers after the session.

We wouldn’t recommend this tea to beginners but rather to tea lovers who want to jazz up their Jingmai experience.
