This tea is just short of perfect. I think I have a new favorite, or at least a going in my top 10. The dried leaf is massive. This cake has long and slender shining maocha that is loosely compressed. This long haired beauty has an enticing aroma of sweet forest moss and cedar in the background. I pulled apart a generous chunk and placed in my warmed yixing and gave it a shake. I haven’t had a sheng session in a little bit, so I was missing my sheng pot. It was nice that we got to spend some time together. It might sound weird, and I don’t know if there is anyone else that feels this way, but I get to know my teapot and I miss it when I don’t sit down and just chill with it. Anyways, the warmed leaf smelled amazing! They gave off a sweet and deep floral scent mixed with a green aroma. It was like the forest floor after a summer rain. There was just so much intensity with this aroma. I washed the leaves once and prepared for my session. The brewed leaves gave off a heavy vegetable aroma and sweet spiced tone. The brew is a translucent pale gold. The taste is something spectacular! This is exactly what my body has been craving. This brew has so much intensity and flavor. The taste begins sweet and syrupy, but it mixes with a light bitterness and vegetable background. It has characteristics alike a Nepalese green tea. Then, the brew reforms to a potent sugarcane with a moss floor. It’s earthy, sugary, and slightly sour. The brew continues this way and grows more and more sweet with each steep. There is a lasting huigan after each steep that is, OH SO GOOD! The qi is quite potent, as most Menghai brews are. It begins without notice and then slams full force. It grabs your mind and lifts off. This qi continues to build with each moment. This is a wonderful tea. It gives a high quality brew without the stress of it being too pricey. The leaves are beautiful. I spotted complete and whole leaves and buds mixed within my yixing. Their color are a pale vibrant jade. The only downfall with this brew is that it falters after some steeping. The brew still delivers a tasteful drink, but it is nothing compared to the first three steep sessions. I believed this brew would last a bit longer. I am still in love with it. I am very happy to have more, and it is definitely going in a top 10 best for me.
