Wong One is one of the leading growers in Pinglin and his Spring 2018 Wenshan Bao Zhong shows why. The twisted, single leaf dark green dry tea opens into a still dark green wet leaf. The nose is floral and buttery, the tea liquor is a lucid pale green. There is a soft astringency in the mouth but no overt bitterness. The tea has great length and a pleasing finish that reprises the floral notes on the nose
Company description not available.
This is a solid, if not spectacular, baozhong. It does better gongfu’ed than grandpa style, which is my usual method of brewing this type of tea. Dry leaf aroma is a sweet medley of lilac and hyacinth. The first steeping was thick and TGY-like, brimming with heady lilacs and orchid. Second steep was more or less the same with a little egg yolk in the finish. At the third steep, the tea softened and gave a rush of wildflowers that lingered on the tongue. The tea faded in the last 2 steeps but still had good flavor. An enjoyable tea, but I’ve been so spoiled by drinking so many great baozhongs that this one just doesn’t excite my taste buds much.
