I ordered samples from Teavivre so I could try this one head-to-head against their flavoured Jin Xuan. :) I steeped 1tsp (3g) in a 10oz mug with steeping basket – boiling water but I find it cools quite quickly when poured into a mug, so they probably actually steeped at about 90C.
This one smells more green and vegetal, in both the dry and wet leaves. The taste is sweet and grassy, and I would describe it as more buttery than creamy. The flavour is quite light and refreshing the way I’ve steeped it… I think next time I’ll probably try a longer steep and see if the flavour deepens a bit. It’s nice but it’s not blowing my mind or anything. I’m looking forward to trying it gong fu style.
