While 2002 might seem young compared to its older counterpart, this tea still exhibits many of the qualities that make aged Liu Bao desirable. The soup has smooth texture in the mouth, while the fragrance is medicinal, without being overpowering. A cooling, minty sensation is also prominent, along with a pleasant huigan. This tea has a very clean flavour, free of any noticeable storage scent. There is also slight exotic-wood note on the back as well, which stands out from the usual camphor note that is present in aged heicha/puer. $0.48/gram
