1.5 tsp for 300mL water @100C, steeped five minutes, drunk bare.
Dry leaf smells of leather, earth, and pepper. I love a peppery Yunnan. Lots and lots of golden tips.
Classic Yunnan forest floor taste: earthy, with trees. Cocoa, some baked bread. Leather and honey notes in the scent, and maybe something floral. No peppery bite. Some linen in the mouthfeel. Smooth finish. Very good.

And it gives a brilliant second infusion, almost identical to the first! LOVE.
Some definite pepper in the second infusion. Ooooh, so happy here.
This is also a very downy tea.
