Received this in my first tea club shipment from White2Tea. My initial notes from first session:

Dry leaf- whole leaf, brown with some lighter fuzzy leaf. Not much aroma.

Wet leaf aroma – earthy, camphor, menthol, evergreen

Liquor – nice medium to light brown, mostly clear

Mouthfeel – active mouthfeel in the back of throat and tongue, thick

Taste – earthy, mushroom, woody, walnuts. Reminds me of the real late steeps of one of my Xiaguan shous. Tastes like some kind of candy that I’m having trouble remembering— Necco Wafers perhaps? Later steeps reveal sweeter berry flavors

Aftertaste – not real prominent, but woody and sweet gingerbread.

Cooling effect

I need to drink this one again, but I can definitely see buying more of this, especially for the price!

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 5 g 3 OZ / 80 ML

I have been a casual tea drinker for as long as I can remember, but in 2015 I have really been expanding the depth of my tea experiences. I’m always looking for new teas to try as well as getting to know my old ones better.
