From Yunnan Sourcing

A new old blend for 2023! Our original Cha Qi was released in 2011 and has since become a classic Yunnan Sourcing blend!

Our 2023 Cha Qi is a unique blend of 6 different Menghai teas, all harvested in Spring 2023! Strong balanced taste with tons of depth and most of all plenty of Cha Qi!

This sheng has medium body and a soft, creamy mouthfeel with very little astringency. It is quite vegetal with decent bitterness., sweetness and umami, as well as more sour fruity and floral notes.

The flavour reminds me of apples and leafy forests, while the aroma is more earthy with notes like celery. There is also a toni-like bitterness in the aftertaste.
