Felt I’d finally given the puerh from my Tealife HK order some time to air out and acclimate, so it was time to start tasting.
Did 7g of this one, quick wash and flash steep. The liquor started out fairly amber in color, with a bit of a mushroomy taste, but light and clean overall. The texture was smooth and a bit airy.
Busy times at work interrupted my session, so I returned to this tea two days later and was met with a redder liquor, similar aroma with more of a piney flavor. It also had a bit of a grapefruit-like bitterness and some enjoyable sweetness.
Very enjoyable, and a very valuable tasting experience for me!

Glad you enjoyed it! This is my favorite of the HK traditional storage raw teas I have on the site!
