This pu-erh has a very sweet aroma that primarily reminds me of apricots. There are also notes of peach, forest, yoghurt, and a grassy meadow.
The taste is a bit like green tea: bitter and flowery. It is also a bit milky with flavour of custard and nut oils.

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.

The way you described this made me think it’s a Mengku tea. It sounded similar to what I’m drinking right now — 2017 YS Nuo Wu Village — so I looked at the description. This is from Mengku!
