From Chen Guang He Tang

Luo Shui Dong, which translates to “Falling Water Sinkhole,” is one of the most renowned tea-producing areas near Yi Wu, known for its high-quality mao cha from old tea trees. This specific tea cake was a vintage 2001 offering from Chen Guan He Tang (CGHT). I believe the tea was initially without its wrapper.

A superbly aged tea that follows the traits of those 99 celebrity cakes – deep, round, complex, and mellow. It has an unmistakenly Yi Wu honey-like aroma with organic herbal, dried fruit zest and a subtle tang. Very long-lasting.

4.1g, 90 mL ZZZ
Wet: smoky floral, sweet

1. Chamomile like? Sweet candied finish. Really interesting finish, maybe citrus-y and earl grey like? I don’t know if my water is weird today or something. This happened once with a different tea session last year as well, both with teas that were broken up and stored in a separate ziploc for a bit. Maybe that?
2. A bit astringent. Earl grey taste. Sweet. Slightly downward, slowing feeling. Sweetness lingers in throat
3. A bit bitter from oversteeping. A bit of core heat
4. Mushroom
5. Floral
6. Concentrated leaf taste, some bitter drying. Stopped here

A little heady today. Not quite as enamored as last time.
