Grandpa Style!
Bitterleaf always absolutely crushes the sourcing of their Jingmai productions, and this 2024 pressing is no exception. Smooth, fresh, and floral with heady notes of orchids, lilac, and pea blossoms with just enough gentle astringency pushed forward from this brewing style. Usually, I take the “cake is sample” approach with each year’s production of this series but this year I tried to scale back how much I spent on Spring teas so I could focus on putting a dent in some of the teas I already have. I might already be regretting that decision, though…
