二零二零年 白毫銀針 吳洋山

After a long survey of Fuding silver needles of the past several years, we have concluded that the cream of the crop is not in fact a hidden gem, but a place already held in the highest esteem. These baihao yinzhens come from an old-tree garden of Wuyang Mountain at more than 600 meters above sea level, and exhibit characteristics particular to its alpine environment. This small batch production is sun-withered and charcoal-baked,Read more

5g, 90mL, boiling.

wet leaf: rose, grain (like those asian breakfast packets you mix with water)
1st: sweet, grassy
2nd: dark floral, but not quite hongcha malty floral. Bit warming
3rd: a bit of astringency aside florals, green tea like
No notes after, but more or less consistent all the way through. Not sure if i was sick or something today, but this was quite warming. I guess yinzhens in general are not very punchy or dramatic, but enjoyable, supposing price is not factored in haha.

old set notes:
The 2023 was very enjoyable, and reminded me of a less sharp floral TShop one that was more comfortable to drink.

Here were my notes from an individual session of that: “5/90/212. wet leaf has strong sugar snap peas and later reveals rose-like florals (if you’ve ever walked through a rose garden, they can smell wildly different, not what the rose/lychee edged note of perfumes would have one believe), before ending as general steeped green sweet-edged notes. taste has sweet honeyed notes, and a green quality (not mint, but something fresh) and lingers somewhat”

I didn’t take notes for the wuyi and the 2020 since that was with a friend. The wuyi was sharper and flatter, and the 2020 is a more honeyed and rounded, gently sweet version of the 2023 from what I remember. If I had the money, I’d purchase the 2023 or 2020, but skip the Wuyi.

I snagged a sample of this tea in my last Daxue Jiadao order but have yet to try it. Did you use a clay pot?

no, just a gaiwan. I didn’t think extra heat retention from clay would’ve helped
