This tea has quite a high degree of fermentations for a Fu Zhuan. It is a very interesting one overall. I particularly like the unique aroma, the thick and buttery mouthfeel, and the cha qi. The tea pours warming sensation through my veins and brings me in tune with my body.
The dry leaf aroma reminds me of barn and freshly roasted coffee beans. After the rinse, the smell is more like wet earth with lots of organic matter, but still with some coffee bean hints. Overall, the aroma reminds be both of aged Yancha as well as Tian Jian.
The taste is smooth, woody, herbaceous, and buttery with hints of tobacco and a dry finish. It is cooling and numbing. The aftertaste is a bit sour with flavours such as those of medium to light roasted coffee and peanuts.
