This was kindly sent to me by a fellow Steepster that saw it in my wish list.
I got out 9 grams of this in the Gaiwan and gave a 5 second rinse. The wet leaf was a mix of asparagus and green beans with a little snow pea in there. It brewed up very light almost like a white tea with a very pale green to it. This is juicy, slightly bitter and a kind of caramel hit with a little smoke touch in there. it has a very nice aroma to it and is very easy to drink. After a failure with another tea earlier today this has been a welcome cup. It goes on the shopping list for sure. A very nice blend of teas.

I got some sample sizes of 2013 Yunnan Sourcing raw pu-erh tea. I haven’t tried any of them yet and this wasn’t among them but it’s good to know some of the 2013 are quite good. I was intrigued by them since I wanted more of a green tea flavour to come through in the pu-erh.
