Not Recommended
A disappointing Jinxuan. I got the 2021 harvest of this tea from my recent Mountain Streams order. It is the first time in a while that I got to try one of my favourite teas, Jinxuan Oolongs. However, this tea was quite disappointing. Yes, it has beautiful leaves with a smooth yet unique texture and aroma, but the flavour was lacking in potency and complexity, and the finish just wasn’t that present. Little cha-qi with horrendous longevity, as well as a character that leaves a lot to be desired. While this tea isn’t bad by any means, it isn’t great and it isn’t something I’d recommend either.
