From Wuyi Origin

Location: Tong mu guan guwan keng village

Cultivar: wuyi qizhong cultivar

The mountain ecology is very good at an altitude of more than 1000 meters. The fragrance of this Jinjunmei is natural flower fragrance mixed with light honey fragrance. The fragrance lasts for a long time. After 3 infusions, the fragrance is more obvious and the taste is more sufficient.

Using 4.5g into 100ml-110ml gaiwan

I waited to drink this one because I could not remember if I really liked it, or was meh. Doing it again, I really liked it. Describing it is going to be hard. Butter, sweet potato, starch, regular potato, malt, wheat, florals, caramel hints, rose hints, etc. is in it. Unlike the other teas, the first steep was nutty after about 30 seconds approaching almond. There are prominent florals, and while I have seen some reviews on the Wuyi website describe rose, I keep on getting hit with geranium instead in every cup. There are times where it approaches chamomile or buckwheat (I know, those were descriptions for other teas I’m using for this one), and then it goes back into the geranium ending in a sweet dry bread-sy finish.

The later brews are just as floral. Not loud or obvious while layering it. Oddly enough, I found the other teas more floral than this one. This tea actually had more dimension. I’m not sure I’d reach for this one again, though I do think it’s good quality and recommend it for people wanting something different.
