This is an interesting and very complex tea. I don’t know exactly how to describe it. It had a bit of a mediciny taste to it. It was somewhat unpleasant at first but this taste didn’t last. It improved over the ten steeps I gave it and became something if not incredible, enjoyable. The best way I can describe it as a sort of cross between an green oolong and a sheng puerh, having a bit of each and a whole different dimension as well.

I steeped this ten times in a 120ml gaiwan with 7.1g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse and a 10 minute rest. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec, and 1 min. I think it would have gone a few more steeps.
