Derk, I found more of this tea! I steeped 4 g of leaf in 355 ml of water at 190F for 4, 5, and 7 minutes.
The dry aroma is of cut grass, narcissus, chili leaf, and faint citrus and muscatel. The first steep has notes of grass, chili leaf, pine, spinach, florals, and faint muscatel. Subsequent steeps are greener, emphasizing spinach, grass, and asparagus.
The vendor said this tea was good until spring 2024, but I think it has already faded. Sorry for giving you a dead tea!

You know I don’t care — every gift is appreciated. First flushes fade but also my sniffer ain’t what it used to be after last winter’s covid. Happy you could get something out of this tea.
