$26 on King Tea and part of the 2016 lineup… had the word fruit in it so I had to try it.
This tea is ready to drink now, which is not usual for same year shou for me; Green Miracle was the first exception before this.
There’s not really a fruit taste to identify in this tea, but there is a sweetness upfront and at the end that makes it unique and enjoyable. Sweet in the sense of the ginseng ripe Bana has. Very light brews with this which appeals to me. Light brown color with a hint of red, not dark as you can see through it and no texture to speak of. This is a mid day type of shou and not the ending night or morning type; unless you prefer your shou on the light side.
Would like to do another session with double the leaf to see what happens. Must say that it taste quite clean for what it is. Huge points on that part of the teas attributes.
