A Zhengyan Lao Chong Shui Xian with rich chocolatey notes and a strong mineral finish. The tea was finished with a high roast that is not too overpowering and still leaves room for the true taste of the tea to come through.

Company description not available.
Prep: 60 or 100cc gaiwan, 5g, boiling water, at first 5s steeps, increasing to chase flavor
Sessions with this tea: 5
Taste: Some good roast flavor at first which then backs off, some dry cacao which is not as in your face as other teas, very smooth overall. The tea shines through after the roast backs off, slightly floral for the shui xian spectrum but not too sweet.
Body: Medium thickness to the mouthfeel, good mineral strength. Moderate energy, sits in my neck and upper chest.
Overall enjoyable tea and I’m looking forward to more of Tea Yuan’s offerings. This is in the middle of the shui xian spectrum for me. There are much sweeter and more fragrant versions out there, and there are also much drier and roastier. I don’t tend to like the extreme ends of the spectrum, so this tea is in a happy middle ground.
i got this sample for review. Thank you Tea Yuan
Excellent quality of leaves, long and beautiful.
this tea is high roasted. I love it. The roast is done nicely and it doesnt over power the base of tea. i t has this strong chocolaty flavor along with mineral notes.
4.5g 70ml shiboridashi 212F
rinse/short steeps
Later on as i pushed for longer steeps it never got bitter, just richer
Thank you tea Yuan for the chance to try your teas, I enjoyed them all!
