Gongfu!
Enjoyed this morning session alongside some sweet, tropical starfruit! This sheng made a really great first impression, but I don’t think I’ve revisited it in over a year now – maybe because all that is left of my sample is the beeng hole, which is definitely a bit frustrating to brew. However, after those first stubborn steeps of fighting to get this tea to open up, I had a great session today! Smooth and medium bodied with a mouth-coating honeycomb sweetness and a crisp finish of sweet yet vegetal fennel bulb! I can see why I remembered it so fondly from past brewing experiences.
