Harvested in Taiwan’s highest plantations (2650 m), this wulong’s dark green leaves yield a deep fruity aroma. Upon infusion, they emit a sweet candy bouquet that turns into browned butter then mango. The warm and smooth liquor sends out notes of meringue and pineapple.

I received this in the mail today and promptly brewed up some in a teapot to share with my husband. I didn’t order much, but Da Yu Lin is something I’ve been meaning to try, so I couldn’t resist just purchasing a little.
The very first cup of tea left a good impression on us. Its flavours hint at vegetal, butter, fruit/spice but never get to the point where it is obnoxious, just peaceful and satisfying. I especially enjoyed the tea body, it is deep and mellow. It stayed fairly consistent throughout the 9 total steeps I did today.
This is our first Da Yu Lin so I can’t comment on how good it is compared to other Da Yu Lin teas. That being said, we loved it and are looking forward to trying more in the future.
My teapot wasn’t too crowded, so I think I’ll add more leaves next time.
125ml yixing teapot, 1 tsp, 9 steeps (rinse, 30s, +15s resteeps for 2nd-6th, +30s for 7th-9th)
