My stomach is still feeling a bit off after becoming ill with a virus, but I’m slowly reintroducing tea into my routine after feeling really under the weather. This tea is a very decent Dancong that I got from my recent BLT order. Beautiful and rich wet leaf aroma with a rich and deep flavour that possesses the “shan yun” that is sought after in dancongs. This tea also has a decent character and a decent cha-qi, with a steep longevity that can go into the fourteens or fifteens. This tea doesn’t have the most appealing look as the leaves were a bit broken and inconsistent, and the tea was pretty bang average when it came to the finish & aftertaste, dry leaf aroma, complexity, and texture. If these areas were better, this definitely could’ve been a top drawer dancong.
