I bought this tea in an Asian supermarket called Amazing Oriental from the Netherlands. They are very famous in the Netherlands with multiple locations in operation. This tea also comes from Anxi County which is pretty rare for a supermarket tea, because they mostly sell tea from huge plantations. Most of the plantations also aren’t situated in tea’s region of origin for example Tieguanyin. Many plantations are located in neighboring cities like Xiamen or Zhangzhou while Tieguanyins region of origin is Anxi County in Quanzhou. The dry leaf of this tea has a nice milky and biscuity aroma with some grassy notes to it. The wet leaf has the smell of mostly marzipan alongside some florality. The taste of this tea is mostly floral with some notes of cooked vegetable. The texture is nice and clear. Overall a nice cheap tea and very suitable for daily drinking.
