Well this is what I like about YS… Site posts tea from a village I’d never heard of for a completely reasonable price, I sample it, it’s actually quite unique and a pleasure to drink. Incredibly pungent, it smells of sweet musk and fruit. Once it gets going its pretty thick and dark, and feels oily in the mouth. There are sudden notes of sweet mint and honey, but the base is much earthier- barn-straw dark green moss. Certainly an enjoyable experience.
Flavors: Honey, Mint, Straw, Wet Moss

i must try it ;)
I think its worth sampling his line each year, for one’s own tea-edification if nothing else
I’ve generally felt pretty positively about Scott’s Jinggu teas. Decent for the price. My favorite is the Huang Shan followed by the Daqing Gushu. They’re also the most expensive but worth the extra money IMO.
Agree. Ranking goes Huang Shan, Da Qing, Zao Qiao.
