From white2tea

A fresh young daily Puer tea to fit any budget. Strong huigan [lasting sweetness] and punchy flavor. This tea is for lovers of youthful Puer with a little bite.

I initially used a stronger ratio and flash steeps, and it gave the impression of a generic young sheng: vegetal, astringent, fairly bitter. Removing some leaves and steeping longer revealed more of the tea’s character. It’s mellow and slightly fruity, with hints of apricot and berries. Lots of caramel as well. There’s a bit of vegetal bitterness to balance all that sweetness, and some intermittent spiciness that I love. The mouthfeel is quite thick for the age; it’s almost like a syrup. The best part is probably the desert-like finish. I need a cake of this to see how it ages.

mmm…splendid! This is such an easy-going value cake! I always wonder how these companies name their teas. Do they name after the first sip? Do they drink a whole cake? Is it an inside joke? shrug This tea I feel I know why they named it Splendid. This is a loosely compressed bing that when warmed brings nice sugary and jammy aromas. The brewed leaf tastes so powdery soft, you’d swear it was a delicate sugared donut. This tea is not complex, it is not long-talking, it is not all too intense. It’s a simple brew with a light and sweet profile. This is the tea that an English mum would make alongside her scones. It is simply a splendid tea.
