6sec and rinse. 100ºC
10sec 96ºC — Clear orange infusion. It smells less smoky (really low). It’s smooth, sweet. No bitter. some sweetness. Really soft.
20sec 100ºC — As the last brew. No bitterness, sweet and soft brew.
I will continue brewing it at night, but at the moment is the best sheng i have tasted and also (if it’s true that is a 2006 sheng) the oldest.
Flavors: Smooth, Sweet
Yes!
As the Lucky Dragon ripe cake was good I have been thinking of trying this. May have to buy it now.
I was thinking the same about the ripe. If you’re looking for a ‘soft’ sheng this is a good option.
I’m going to buy 1-2 more cakes and keep it for 3-5 years more to see how it ages.
