Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Pairing: shortbread, fresh fruit, or mild cheeses

Sometimes it’s best not to oversell something. At some point, everybody has been disappointed by expectations, set up by grand claims and promises. Initially described to us as a “Xigui-esque gushu” tea, this tea performs remarkably well for an impersonator. If you want true Xigui, then a bigger budget is necessary. But for the rest of us, this is the tea that will make your head nod. This tea checks all the boxes: High fragrance, lingering sweetness, excellent mouthfeel, noticeable energy/body feeling, and a price that puts it in the upper budget/lower midrange category. If you’re considering a cake of this tea, then we strongly recommend doubling up so that you have one to drink now and one for down the road. Picking period: Pre-April 3 $0.29/gram
