From high up on Lishan, this tea has the coveted high mountain complexity and softness that makes the style so beloved. It is also made by a careful, poetic tea maker who was able to get the dazzling bouquet 'into the soup' which requires a deft hand.
Brews up light golden yellow and visibly viscous. The broth gently makes itself known with a sweet cushy mouthfeel, and fills the mouth with a bouquet of elegant floral and herbal tones. It then travels to the back of the palate and warms the throat in a way that just melts tension, the aroma then vaporizing to linger long after the swallow. In a way it feels like drinking the purest spring water.
What hit me the first time I drank this tea was the voluptuous gardenia and lilac tones that create a tight, focused harmony in the scent of this tea. The second time I drank it the fullness of its buttery broth dazzled me, and I felt it was not only a elegant tea, but also a luxurious one. The third time I drank it there was a delicate note of sweet basil leading me to notice its softness, and the broth felt like silk rippling on my tongue.
As I'm writing this, I don't know what else this tea will have to show, but it has told me it has a depth of stories to tell. It is not an ordinary high mountain oolong, and that's exactly what we're looking for with any tea at this price point.
