I went to Ming Ming about a month ago, hoping to pick up some Da Hong Pao or other Wuyi oolong, but they were out. What they did have however was a very fresh smelling Dragonwell from last year’s winter harvest. I had never heard of winter Dragonwell, but I was convinced by the freshness that it couldn’t have been from last autumn or spring.
It’s a very mellow green, much more to my liking than most of the other Dragonwells that I’ve tried. I’ve found it brews well with a little over four grams in my 120mL gaiwan. The strongest note is green bean, with background notes of chestnut, butter, and grass, and a touch of something marine.
It may not be the greatest to someone better versed in Dragonwell than I am, but I like milder greens and this one hits the spot.
Flavors: Butter, Chestnut, Grass, Green Beans, Ocean Breeze
