Aroma: Gosh I am in love with this fresh Sheng! It literally was love at first sniff :D – there is such an uniqueness to its whole aromatic structure which is majorly sweet orientated. The first thing I noticed when I opened the package was such an overwhelming freshness and also a very distinct flavor of fresh strawberries with their green. Lovel
y! If those leaves are a bit cooled down you might notice a slightly fruity alcoholic hint to it! Smelling on those empty cups after you took the last sip is another highlight within this amazing tea – such a great mix of beeswax and honey!
Taste: The texture of the actual liquor is very silky and creamy with such a instant sweetness from the start. This sweetness is on one half of it very sweet corn syrup like with a sweet vegetable but also with a fruity note of strawberries plus a hint of Nam dok mai (Thai mango) at the very end of it. But talking about strawberries this isn’t only naturally noticeable also in a mix between this and a Hi-Chew strawberry gum flavor version too (Japanese gum candy)! This fellow is very unique. I never ever got such a special profile within a fresh sheng. In some ways there is a touch of Taiwanese Oolong flavor in it. Very uncommon. I never ever tasted such a sweet Sheng! Besides those fruity aspects there is also something cooling and warming to it. Within the throat you can feel a certain cooling sensation which is quite minty in some ways but for the rest of the body it is more a warming and relaxing experience. There is no bitterness within this fresh Raw at all.
This is one of the best fresh Shengs I’ve ever had! Just amazing!
