A decent yancha. I got this tea from my recent OWT order, and it had some really good points and some not so good. Beautiful leaves with a rich aroma and a vibrant liquor that produced a wondrous golden sheen. The flavour was quite nice and nuanced with a brilliant juicy yet smooth texture. Decent aftertaste & finish paired with an okay-ish character are the remaining plaudits that this tea has. When it comes to cha-qi, there was literally none and this tea had relatively poor steep longevity, losing its rich flavour and texture past steep 5-6. All in all, a decent tea but just not good enough.
