Unique, delicate, savory, honey-like, and fragrant. I used hot (non-boiling) water. The leaves are olive green, intact, and have an unusual orchid-like aroma. The first steep is somewhat monotone, but the second steep is where the flavors begin to reveal themselves. It has that wonderful sweetness that reminds me of a deep pristine forest in the summer. The tea brews bright yellow with very little astringency, and leaves an unusual up-lifting sensation in my mouth and chest. Even without reading the description, it’s clear these tea leaves were well sourced from a pure environment.
