Decided to gongfu this tea today. 4 grams / 125 ml gaiwan.

I am not much able to tell the difference in flavour profile. Maybe it was a bit more chocolate-y, but as I have prepared 5 steps 20-45 seconds long as they suggest, it was fading quite quickly and overall it was quite woody, with typical shu profile. After fifth steep it was like a woody water.

While it wasn’t a bad tea, it wasn’t anything I would order in a cake profile or bigger quantity.

Flavors: Chocolate, Sweet, Thick, Wood

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 30 sec 4 g 4 OZ / 125 ML

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
