Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
This tea has been kept in Hong Kong since the 1990's. The tea leaves are big and are picked from old trees. Since this tea has been fermented/aged and was transported to different warehouses, a small amount of the leaves are broken, but most of the leaves are still in wholesome shape. The dry leaves consist of a brown color, giving the tea liquid a very comfortable woody, dry date flavor which lingers in the mouth. The tea is mellow and smooth in mouth feel with no bittiness/astringency. A nice tea for calming and relaxation!
