Best Jin Jun Mei that I have ever had. I have been lucky enough to have this tea twice and was just gifted a serving of it by two wonderful people! It’s a shame that this tea is not sold anywhere inside or outside of China. It’s a rare gem. Hopefully, I will be able to taste it again in my lifetime after I finish the sample I was given.
1st infusion: bold, malty, only very very faintly smoky, full, complex, ending with smooth, coats the tongue with almost creaminess
2nd infusion: more red in color, getting smoother
3rd onward: more and more smooth, color increases in red and then decreases after 5th infusion
