Brews up a medium-dark yellow, and has a spicy and honeyed aroma (though not as honeyed as yesterday’s Wuliang) Taste wise it’s also quite comparable to the Wuliang; honey, mineral, grain, but it’s dryer (as in less sweet, not astringent) and has less honey and bitterness, but a thicker body and a more mineral, spicier, woody-er flavor. After a couple of steeps I start to get strong “qi” feelings of calm and mild tingling on the crown of the head.
It’s a nice tea, but for the price I would go with the Wuliang as it’s quite similar and cheaper.

Another one worth the price tag and you are getting very good material. When you put the order for those Bai Ni Shui add a few of these :P

This one is definitely unique and fun to drink. But I am a fan of the 2016 Wuliang. It feels like I’m drinking fragrance!
