This tea was crafted from old-tree Yunnan leaves and pressed into cakes in 2018, now with seven years of natural aging. The dry cake shows a mix of golden-brown hues with silver buds, the leaves appearing thick and sturdy. Once brewed, the liquor is bright golden with a clear shine, carrying a lingering and layered aroma. The first sip reveals a notable sweetness with ripe fruit undertones, followed by aged medicinal notes and a hint of woody character. On the palate, the texture is smooth and gentle at the beginning, gradually building into a richer, thicker body. The aftertaste is long and sweet, leaving a subtle cooling sensation. Compared with newly made white tea, this aged cake has shed its youthful greenness, showing instead a calm and mellow depth. The sweetness is well-integrated with ripe fruitiness and medicinal fragrance, giving it a nourishing, grounding character. Overall, after seven years, the transformation is quite evident: high sweetness, pronounced yet balanced herbal aroma, and a thick, enduring mouthfeel. It remains a tea worth further storage to explore its future layers of complexity.
