Guoyan

This is one of my favorite shous. It’s perfect for a long, relaxing tea session. I honestly lost count of how many infusions it can go through. It’s incredibly smooth, mellow, a bit sweet, hearty, and earthy. The body has the right amount of thickness and the throat is pleasantly long. It’s a very easy going shou. This could be a daily drinker. The one thing that I will say, though, is that it is not as complex as I remembered it being the first time I enjoyed it. I may fiddle around with parameters during the next session with it and see how the complexity changes.

Ps. I took some photos while I was brewing this and as a super amateur photography, I CANNOT believe that I was able to get these shots:

Hypnotic medicine. So utterly smooth and calming.
