This is a very tasty tea that I wish I had a larger quantity of. It was very good. It was just a little malty and not particularly bitter. There was no real astringency to it. I don’t know if I will keep my Global Tea Hut subscription for another year but it is a nice magazine. They had a very interesting article on Qi in the latest issue and they consider this tea an example of one with a high Qi or good Qi. I did notice a pleasant effect but am not sure if I would call it high Qi.

I brewed this five times in a 240ml Yixing teapot with 5g leaf and 200 degree water. I steeped it for 30 sec, 45 sec, 1 min, 2 min, and 5 min. I still have the leaves in the pot and may go back for another steep. After all this is not a tea I want to waste..

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
