Overview
Best pick • solid other choice from Unknown origin
Pairing: mushrooms, braised meats, or dark chocolate
Origin: Big Snow MtnBrand: Wang YoujiWeight: 100g±Style: Shu Cake (熟砖) We know you'll want to get this one just for the art, but you'll be doubly excited when you open up the tea! Even the wash comes out a rich, dark umber and is fully rounded, sweet, and delicious. There are hints of ripe tea, but only an experienced drinker will be able to identify them. You'll get at least 5 very dark, rich, and crystal clear infusions and, though the color may start to fade, the flavor will carry you through the day. Especially at this price, you will absolutely fall in love with this tea. Hints of incense, ginseng, and earthy, but not fungal, with memories of floral accents.
