Always love a classic Chinese green tea. This tea is slightly floral and sweet, with astringency at optimal levels — not quite mouth puckering but not without bite either. There is a distinct umami flavour that arises in later infusions. The leaves smell of soup broth in the gaiwan which is interesting. Nothing about it is memorable enough to purchase again, but it is delicious.
